Lyn is working for a bank services company that builds technologies to enable integration of ATM
(Automatic Teller Machines) and mobile (phone) banking using apps. The system has been running
for five years now. Yesterday, the government banking watchdog approached you to ask some
questions about two suspicious transactions on your system that look like criminal money
laundering (where criminals put money through banks so that they look like legitimate
transactions and then transfer the funds to other accounts, sometimes internationally). You have
been told that each unreported transaction (of more than $5,000 deposit or transfer) will result in
a fine of $15,000. You have now checked your system and in fact you have identified more than
50,000 similar potentially illegal transactions. Checking the system software, you can see that a
line of code where the check is made and a message sent to the banks fraud squad has been
commented out.
