A free money glitch has taken over TikTok.
00:02
Except it's not free money, it's fraud!
00:05
The Chase bank glitch encourages people to write fake checks and deposit them into their own bank accounts at an ATM.
00:11
Usually a check has to process before it clears.
00:14
But users withdrew cash from ATMs knowing the check they wrote wouldn't clear,
00:19
thinking the bank would accept it with no repercussions.
00:22
A Chase spokesperson told Fortune that depositing a bad check is fraud, plain and simple.
00:27
The legal repercussions for check fraud can vary by state and the amount of money in question.

But regardless, the social media users are still on the hook for the money.
