    People willingly gave checks to friends that were larger than they could actually afford. Those people then attempted to withdraw more than the total value of the check after deposit, which was successful. Chase failed to validate their software for edge cases exactly like this, which could very easily happen in good faith.

    Let’s not forget that there are people who very likely did this out of desperation. Throwing them in prison or issuing severe fines for learning about a bug is disproportionate.

      You: If the police aren’t watching, stealing is just fine!

          I agree with that and we’re all sheep who put up with it.

        I’m surprised I don’t hear you screaming falling off that cliff.

        Where exactly in saying that throwing likely vulnerable people behind bars instead of you know, something more proportionate, did you hear them condoning it?

          You must be a Sov Cit. No reasonable person goes “oh it’s ok that they broke the law. it wasn’t their fault, the bank should teach them better”.

              You’re the only one talking about screaming and I think you should answer your own question.
