JPMorgan Chase Is Suing More Customers Allegedly Tied to the Viral 'Infinite Money Glitch' Scam

JPMorgan Chase is suing more customers who allegedly used an “infinite money glitch” to defraud the bank of money last year.

The technical glitch, which occurred in August 2024, allowed customers to deposit fraudulent checks in ATMs and then quickly withdraw the funds before the checks could clear or bounce. The glitch then went viral on social media that same month. 

JPMorgan Chase has now filed lawsuits against additional individuals, who they claim stole amounts of up to $75,000. The company, the largest bank in America, first filed a string of lawsuits in October.

In a suit filed in Georgia’s Gwinnett County on Tuesday, April 15, that was obtained by PEOPLE, JPMorgan Chase states, “On August 29, 2024, a masked man deposited a check in [the defendant’s] Chase bank account in the amount of $73,000.00.”

The lawsuit goes on to claim that the defendant then made a series of cash withdrawals over the next several days, taking out a total of $82,500 from the bank, before the check bounced six days later.

JPMorgan Chase alleges that the defendant currently owes them $57,847.69 and has failed to pay the amount back, despite the bank’s demands.

The suit asks that the defendant be found liable for the amount in question, as well as for interest, plus related attorney fees.

An attorney for the defendant in the Gwinnett County lawsuit did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

In addition to the case in Georgia, JPMorgan Chase is filing lawsuits in Florida, New York and Texas, per CNBC, which cited an anonymous source.

The outlet added that the bank has sent letters demanding repayment to more than 1,000 customers since October.

In a statement to PEOPLE, a JPMorgan Chase representative said: “We’re still investigating cases of fraud and cooperating with law enforcement — and we’ll do that for as long as it takes to hold fraudsters accountable.”
