He was either extremely good at his job, or an employer at Apple wanted to scare the hell out of people in the HR department.

Sam Sung, 25, who spent three years working in the Pacific Centre iStore in Vancouver, is raising an iPopping amount for charity by auctioning off his bizarre business card.

Despite sharing his name with Apple's main rival, Mr Sung says he had a great time working for the company (what, not even one accusation of industrial espionage?).

After coming across one of his old business cards, he decided to package it up with his old uniform and sell it off to the highest bidder on eBay.

But who would want such a thing? A lot of people, apparently. There have been more than 100 offers and the current bid stands at nearly $80,000, with five days to go.

Sung says he's donating the entire lot (minus eBay fees) to Children's Wish, British Columbia and Yukon – a non-profit organisation that grants wishes to sick children.

Via his eBay page, he said: ‘I hope my old business card will go to another fellow Apple enthusiast with a sense of humour and the desire to help raise some money for a good cause.'
