You stole your own cash!

　　By withdrawing money they didn’t have in their accounts,

　　some of these greedy customers have gone heavily overdrawn.News reports indicate that some people were withdrawing as much as AU $2,500 (￡ 1,563) in single dealing.

　　Alas, both CommBank and the New South Wales police said that they will use ATM records and cameras to track down those who took advantage of the error.As Detectives Superintendent Col Dyson of the New South Wales police department warned, “People should realise that they don’t have the right to take that money and are committing a criminal offence if they keep it.”

　　What about overpayments?

　　What about when you key in a ￡20 withdrawal and you get two ￡20 notes, not two ￡10 notes?

　　In English law(covering England and Wales), you have the right to keep money paid to you in error “under mistake of fact”， but only if you honestly believe that the money is yours.

　　However, if you requested ￡20, got ￡40 and ￡40 was allowed to be lent to you, then the cash is yours to keep, as neither you nor the bank has suffered any loss.

　　1．The words “hole in the wall” refer to ________.

　　A．the mouth of a neighbour

　　B．a common machine

　　C．a real hole in the wall

　　D．another ATM
