I wonder who actually ends up paying in cases like these? Are there
any posted accounts that tell whether the bank absorbed the loss? Or
whether they were able to pull the money back? These might provide
some ammunition to argue with banks that universally refuse to block
ACH debits on consumer accounts (as that would be inconvenient for
businesses) and claim that they can clean up any fradulent withdrawals
after the fact.
