Hey guys, new to site thought I'd post to clarify some things regarding bank accounts being "drained". I work closely with fraud investigators and can say unequivocally that no traditional checking/savings account can be emptied via atm unless there is very low funds to begin with. Many algorithms are in place to prevent a series of large transactions on consecutive days outside of normal account activity. Some of you have probably experienced this (security hold) while on road trips, vacation etc. Furthermore removing said hold always requires additional information only an account holder would be privy to.
