You are correct. It was a typo. The amount is US$25.

Further details from Cambodian police : The Australian woman, Carol Evans, was not residing in Cambodia, but was here as a tourist on holiday. She entered the country on 4 September 2018 on a one month tourist visa, which expired on 4 October, and had not been renewed.

Is she this Carol Evans from Bundaberg?

Final Cambodian meal; Sofitel buffet is a good shout to get you through the police/immigration paperwork until they put you back on a plane. 0/10 for financial planning, 10/10 for exit strategy planning, even James Bond would be proud. #ShakenNotStirred

No one is ever about to be picked up by the fuzz for overstay. You could overstay for a decade as long as you don't get picked up for sleeping rough or stealing.

She only overstayed for a month, that's one the shortest on record for someone who got arrested.
