Part 1: The ATM glitch that turned an Aussie barman into a millionaire

An ordinary Melbourne barman stumbles across an extraordinary loophole - an ATM glitch that lets him withdraw unlimited cash, no questions asked.

What follows is a rapid transformation into a high-roller fantasy: luxury hotels, designer shopping, five-star dining and private jets, all fuelled by money that shouldn’t exist.

In this episode of The Briefing, we’re taking a break from the daily news cycle and bringing you part one of an extraordinary story from LiSTNR’s Crime in Focus.
