Something Doesn't Add Up
Jo Fidgen hears from a woman in America whose identity was stolen as a child and how the fortunes of one man changed after a bank error meant he had a limitless overdraft
When she was 19 years old, Axton Betz-Hamilton discovered that she had been a victim of identity theft. She vowed to track down the fraudster - and made a shocking discovery.
In 2010 a bank error meant that Luke Moore was automatically granted any loan request he made. Over the next two years or so, he withdrew more than two million Australian dollars spending it all on sports cars, speed boats and memorabilia.
