Stealing One Dollar From Every Account...

I've thought of this for some time now. What if you went to a bank, and maybe hacked into their computer, and then stole one dollar from every account? And then, since let's say there were over a million customers there, you had over a million dollars in stolen money?

That's obviously stealing over a million dollars, and that is what you'd be charged with. But how would the authorities and legal system handle it? All you really did was steal a dollar—albeit from everyone.

 

A corrupt legal system. They would take the money as evidence, once in their hands, it would disappear. Now if you could spend a million dollars in a hurry, you would be in deep shit.

 

This is literally the premise of the movie "office space"

you'd be in big trouble unless you can burn down the whole company before you're caught.

 

Their is a much easier way, with little chance of ever being caught.

First set up a fake account at the bank for "Jimbee taxi services".
Then print some invoices and send them for a ride under £10, to hundreds of different large companies every day, simply mentioning the time and giving the order number as verbal / telephone.

Rather than spending hours, trying to track which staff member took the ride, the girl in the accounts office of about 10% of the companies will pay them.

Back in the 1970's, this scam started in the UK. Before it became public, the inventor made a lot of money. Unfortunately, the idiot told a few of his friends and the bubble burst.

 

There is a much easier way. You just need ex-president masks and a shotgun.

 

a dollar is still enough to actually buy something. even if a penny no longer is.
ninty nine cents, dollar tree and the like, you can still buy one cupcake or a genaric store brand soda,
even if most everything else is more then that, even there.
