5/2     I tried to make a deposit at the ATM and made a 1 digit mistake
        and the machine thinks I'm depositing X even though I'm really
        depositing Y. Will the correction be made somehow, and will I
        get penalized for the mistake?
        \_ They'll correct the error.  My bank charges me $5 if I make an
           incorrect deposit at another bank's ATM, but not if I do it at
           their own ATMs.
        \_ depends on your bank.  Yes, they will correct it.
        \_ Whatever else you do, do not attempt to spend any erroneous
           and illusory windfall you may think you've gained. They will
           correct, and they will want their money back.
        \_ Yeah, I made this mistake at my bank a while back.  They
           corrected it and didn't charge anything.  I didn't even realize
           the mistake until they corrected it.  (I think it my case I had
           inputted too little.  Desposited $500 but inputted $50 or
           something.)
