• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Here we go.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: All right, we are about to chat to a guy.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: His name is Dan. He lived in Country Victoria and
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: when he was twenty nine years old, he stumbled across
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: a bit of a technical fault with the NAB Bank.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Basically what it was is when the ATM system every
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: night went into network maintenance, it was kind of like
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: offline and couldn't really see what he was doing, and
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: he found if he went at that time, there was
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: a glitch where he could just transfer money into his
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: account unlimited keeper coming and he didn't have the money,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: the bank didn't know, and he just kept pulling it
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: off and he lived quite the extravagant lifestyle for a
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: while until the guilt started to get to him. Yep,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: and he dubbed himself in and dabbed himself in.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he literally handed himself in. I mean, I can
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: safely say majority of the population wouldn't. Surely No.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: They even made a movie ATM Boy back in twenty
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: twenty four. The story's resurfaced. I think on the TV.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: They've been covering it again lately. On SBS. They did
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: a big special, so we thought we'd get him on Dan, Hello,
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: good morning.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I did they did good morning, guys, are going it
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: seems like I said back in time when.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Hash by the way he went to jail for it too.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Well, this is one of the questions that I want
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: to ask you, Dan, because I actually feel like the
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: fact that you came forward and confessed to what you
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: were doing, not only were you basically eliminating any other
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: risk to NAB bank, So they should not only be
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: thanking you. I can't believe they threw you in jail
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: for a year and then find you a quarter of
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: a million dollars like that feels very unfair when you've
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: done I mean, you did the wrong thing for a
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: little bit, but you ultimately did the right thing in
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: the end.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a massive miscarriage of justice, and I'm just
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: working towards having all the rights wrong from that, you know,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Like I didn't deserve to go jail, now, I completely deserved.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: It was one of those things. It's like, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: for me, the story is about temptation and what you
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: do when no one's looking right. I mean, that's the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: story to me, you know, and it's different to so
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: many people. You know, Like the other night, I was
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: on Insight and I'm just sort of we sat there
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: for three hours doing this thing, and then I'm watching
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: the edit and I'm like, oh, it's not really you know,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: it's not really that Like I wasn't you know, sort
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: of you know, trying to gloat the whole time, like
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: you know Reggie Reggie Bird Brother who won Big Brother twice. Yeah,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: so she's talking about everything that's happened to her and
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: all the leeches that tried to attach themselves to her,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and she won money and all that kind of stuff.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: But all that stuff doesn't make it in right, Ah,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: she had an incredible story, like the fact that, you know,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: people won't publish her story, her book, like she's got
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: massive followers, like Australian publishers, do yourself favor and publish
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: that book because she's like she loved, you know, like
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: she was she spent so much joy to people, you know,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: like it was but it was interesting, you know, like
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: so certain aspects get cut off, you know. So then
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I'm sort of sitting there talking about how I bought
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: a horse and a car and all this stuff, and
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: then it cuts to this lady who was just trying
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to get a loan for two grand.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Right, so was Yeah, the special was on other people
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: as well. Back to you, though, this is what we
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: want to know. When you discovered the glitch how to
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: begin with, and you were actually putting the money into
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: your account, You weren't withdrawing money. Was there any guilt
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: when you did it to begin with?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So it was like it was like a magic show. Really,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: So I start transferring money between my accounts and the
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: transactions are honoring. I'm not really sure why they're honoring,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: but then the money's staying there. So I'm doing transfer.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Anyone knows you can go to an ATM and do
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: a transfer between your accounts, So that's what I was doing,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and so that was creating the money. So I worked
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: out between long story shot, between twelve am and one am,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I could transfer as much money as I wanted from
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: my credit card to my savings account and that money
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: would stick there for a whole day. Right, So, but
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I could transfer up to six figures, So I could
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: transfer up to nine hundred and ninety nine thousand dollars
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: at a time. Well, but then you could just do
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: it three times. Yeah, but then you could just do
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: it three times, right, So if you did it three times,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: nine hundred thousand, I'd had two point seven million dollars
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: in there. And then during the day I could go
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: into the bank and say how much money I've I
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: got in the bank and she'd say, or he'd say
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: two point seven million dollars, how much would you like?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: And so it was sort of back in the day
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: where you could go out, you know, you could get
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: one hundred thousand out of the bank, you could get
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: fifty thousand. You can't really do that anymore, but it
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: was more like there wasn't time to think about what
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I was doing. It was just amazing, and I was
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: what can we do? And then you know, sort of
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: each each day just grew and grew and grew, and
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I got more and more trouble and I knew that
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I was doing the wrong thing, but it was just
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: so it was just so awesome to be able to,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: you know, shout your family and friends and you know,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: live a life like I was living like, you know,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I'm ASoft four. I was living like Christiana Roneldo four months,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: He would have felt like you were in some kind
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: of magical movie.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Did you tell I'm like, did you have a cover story?
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Because obviously like, why have you got all this money
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden? How did you explain it to
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: your friends and family?
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Well, exactly, I just said, like, you know, I said,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: I've got a big quaddy or I got like a
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: big multi or something, you know, because I was just
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: like there was no other way to explain it. You know.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I used to tell people I was a poker player
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: or you know, in investments or whatever. And I remember
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: leaving the bar, you know, because I had to do
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the transfers every night at twelve, and so I'd leave
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the bar where I was at and walk to it
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: and nob atm and I used to tell people that
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to go, you know, check the prices
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: in Hong Kong, you know, because I'm I'm a banker
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: or yeah, you know what I mean, Yeah exactly, and
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: they just and no one really cares anyway, right, you
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like you got the money, no
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: one really cares what you do. They sort to ask you,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: but it's just kind of lift service.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what is What's What's one of the most ridiculous
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: things that you spent money on?
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: It was all pretty ridiculous, probably probably red Gucci shoes
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: because I have kind of like we've got to custom
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: made and they were like size thirteen or something. It
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: was ridiculous.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: They didn't make you obviously pay the one point six
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: million dollars back, right.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean you can't get blood out of the stone, right,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, have you still got
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: the red shoes? Six million dollars? If I had one
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: point six million dollars right now, I probably wouldn't give
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: it to that bank. Yeah?
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, right, But did you have to declare bankruptcy or
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: how did you get out of it?
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I did? I did, Yeah I did.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: Hey, let's before we let you go, mate, let's talk
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: about the moment where you decided to dub yourself in them, Like,
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: you know you're doing this, You're buying your red Gucci shoes.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: All of that.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: At what point did you go, this is enough, I
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: need to dob myself in.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Well you can imagine it. Rather so it's all fun
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: and games for a while, right, but then ultimately every
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: transaction you feel like you're adding to your prison sentence
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: and also a loss who I was. I didn't even
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: know who I was. I was just like random dude
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: that I didn't even know. Just you know, trying to
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: do transfers every night, keep the ball in the air,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: you know, and people would say that, you know, I
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: sort of dropped the ball, but I kept the ball
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: in the air as long as I could. You know,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was going to die.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: So yeah, because I mean, yeah, it's funny that because
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: you're not working for you for anything, Like there's no
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: satisfaction really in life, is there. Yeah, it seems like
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: we all would do it, but maybe we wouldn't.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: I was that like a really really guilty feeling.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I think it's situational, right, So if you're studying to
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: be a doctor, and you know you're doing all these things,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you're not up at midnight, you know, check that he
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: can transfer money between your accounts on an ATM, you
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's kind of like, yeah, circumstance,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: like if I had kids at home, you know, I
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: definitely wouldn't have done it, But it was just you know,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: it's just sort of.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: Hey, in your opinion, does money buy happiness? Then you've
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: had access to all these free money for not working.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Did it make you happy?
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Look, it doesn't make you happy, but it definitely helps
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if you can you can earn
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: it in a just and kind of integracy way, then
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: absolutely all right.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Well good on your mate, Dan So always known as
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: ATM Man. Thanks for coming on the show.
