It was not actually a glitch or loophole, its the way banks work. Many banks will give you access to deposited funds via check immediately before the check goes through.

People who abuse that privilege not only risk legal consequences, but they can lose their ability to qualify to have checking accounts & have to use check cashing stores instead of banks.
Hmm. A guy apparently wrote himself a fake check for around 99 billion dollars and now is negative by 99 Billion dollars. The guy called Chase asking if they could reverse the negative 99 Billion dollars and the Chase Bank representative LAUGHED at him for being stupid enough to write himself a fake check for 99 Billion dollars!
