So it wasn't some kid genius cracking the bank code, as the other article makes it sound like. Just a very simple error in the machine. OK so we now know the other article is just hyping him to be some computer genius and we also know that he returned the money, knowing full well it wasn't his and even if the bank allowed him to keep it, once it was found to be an error he would have to give it back anyway or go to jail. In either event, to press buttons on any bank machine to transfer money from one account to the other that doesn't exist, is very questionable behaivior. So once again the great jjsmith has to interpret simple things for everyone's benefit. Thanks for the posts.

"I went to a Green Machine instant teller in Welland on Sunday to pull out $5 for gas," said [John Bordynuik], 20, a student of nuclear physics and computer technology at Brock University in St. Catharines.

Curious to know just how much the Green Machine thought he had, Bordynuik began punching buttons to transfer $95,000 at a time from his chequing account to his savings account.
