英国某地一台ATM机发生故障，在顾客取款时会吐出双倍数额的现金，有数百名顾客趁机取款，但银行表示大家可以留下这份“飞来横财”。
Some customers walked away thousands of pounds better off after news of the cash bonanza rapidly spread.
此消息不胫而走之后，有些人甚至赶来取走了数千英镑。
Long queues quickly formed as residents in the affluent village of Milford-on-Sea, near Lymington, Hampshire, rushed to take money out.

They tweeted: "If you get a call that the ATM at HSBC in Milford-on-Sea is dishing out too much money - we are there already - Sorry folks!"
消息说：“如果你接到电话，称汇丰银行在米尔福德镇的一台ATM机发生了故障，可以多取钱，那么对不起大家我们已经赶到那里了。”
"If you have knowingly received too much money from an ATM, the banks will chase you as this may be classed as fraud."
