I have had that happen before. I now have it where all charge bills have to be signed by a certain list of people at each place.
Like the local coop, the fertilizer bills and chemical bills have to be signed by me or my sons. NO one else. Not my wife, my DIL, not a hire hand, one of us have to sign the bills. We are the ones paying so we are the ones that have to be on the tickets.
Local gas station the list includes the Grand Kids.
The tickets have to be signed!!! Had the Coop deliver some fertilizer. The driver dropped the spreader and took off with me not more than 100 feet from him when he left. I was coming to him to sign the ticket. I called the Coop and told them that I would not pay for that load if they did not bring me a ticket to sign plus my copy for my records. They did on the next load out. Not an issue then.
I had a cousin that would charge stuff to relatives accounts. He did over 20K on fertilizer and seed one spring that got charged to MY account. The Coop manager got fired over it. I refused to pay for the cousin's charges. The cousin was and is a DEAD BEAT. He finally does not farm anything now. No one will trust him enough to rent him a scoop shovel.
Your friend real should not have any issue with a charge that large. Whoever allowed the charge to happen is the one at fault. I hope your friend contested the bill as soon as he got it. If he waited then it makes it more difficult.
These issues is why some places now have no charge accounts anymore.
I closed the ones at the lumber yard and a few others. It is just easier to just pay for stuff as you go rather than have to try to remember what is what at the end of the month. Only have accounts at places we do a lot of business with.

Today's Featured Article - An AC Model M Crawler - by Anthony West. Neil Atkins is a man in his late thirties, a mild and patient character who talks fondly of his farming heritage. He farms around a hundred and fifty acres of arable land, in a village called Southam, located just outside Leamington Spa in Warwickshire. The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
