Rounding error
A very clever scam was to move the money that disappeared when a transaction was rounded to cents to a special account. With enough transactions, the account held a substantial amount of money.

Thieves may not be as clever as idiots (Remember the old saying, Nothing is idiot-proof because the idiots are so damned clever.) but they are just as determined.
