I’m sorry, but no. Anyone who did this knew it was theft fraud. And if they didn’t, ignorance is not an excuse for breaking the law. I’m not usually on the side of the justice system, but this was clearly wrong. Maybe they don’t need to fill up our jails, but some community service is deserved.
if there’s a button that says “free money (don’t press)” and you press it’s absolutely the fault if the company for leaving the button out in public. It should be expected that any user input can and will be abused.

the companies shouldn’t have allowed it to happen, JPMorgan was aiding in check fraud
That’s not how any of this works dude. That’s actually absurd lol
why should banks recive special treatment when compared to any other company?

Special treatment? They were being stolen from. Just because the money wasn’t in a vault doesn’t mean you can just steal it…???

what a weird hill to die on
I just hate governments defending companies from the consequences of their own incompetence without properly buying them entirely
I’m down to make the whole economy public but this is an unfair take
If I mess up I owe them money.
If they mess up I owe them money.
Seems a little one sided to me.
If they mess up and you exploit their system to steal*
Idk sounds like something a major banking company should never have let be possible in the first place.
Sounds like they should eat that loss for not catching it or fixing it sooner.
That’s what happens to normal people who fall for exploits/scams. They just have to eat the loss.
Now that. That is a much more fair argument.
