JPMorgan Chase has begun to file lawsuits against people that exploited the viral “infinite money glitch”—or committed check fraud—this summer.
In August, posts began circulating on social media showing users how to exploit “the glitch” by depositing into the bank’s ATMs bogus checks for large amounts, and withdrawing some of those available funds before the check bounced. The now-closed loophole quickly went viral, with social media users cashing in on the trend and
