The easiest way to make money I have heard of was a guy who erased his name off of his paying in slips and left them on the bank shelves. People would use them as general paying in slips, writing in their bank details, but that made no difference. When the slip hit the machine the computer would enter his details from the mag stripe / OCR information and just ask the operator to read and type in the amount. The cash went straight into his account.
By the time they caught on there had been a large withdrawal and he was long gone.

This would have been a lot funnier if you'd posted it an hour earlier:

Though if you are talking about Frank Abignail, he got caught later and nearly died in a French prison...

The idea is not to get caught. Like I really posted it at '11.16' and not an hour earlier

There is no correlation between my post and the fall in the share price my lord its just a co-incidence honest

There was a guy that use to send his pretend dry cleaning bill (receipt) to restaurants saying

Had a great time ….. but unfortunately your waiter spilt something on my suit said at time if couldn’t clean it would pay bill etc etc

The amounts were small say £7 to £9

95% of restaurants paid it without a fuss any research

Was found out when a restaurant got the letter but they were not open on the day he mention

That was on 'That’s life' decades ago and I thought what a good idea to make easy money !!

Get on your local council and take back handers from building firms who seek to win a tender.

Better still become an MP. No need to declare your expenses. Send your kid to university free.

Rellocate your firm to India, Malaysia etc.,

Take a job as a CEO of a large company (water and trains are especially lucrative)

Arrive late, take a long boozy lunch, leave early.

When it all goes pear shaped accept the offer of a golden handshake.

Enjoy the loot.

Accept another CEO headhunted job offer.

Repeat as above.

All perfectly legal my dear.
