BANK MACHINE SPEWS FAKE CASH

On December 2, Reuters published a story about an incident 
at an automated teller machine owned by Toronto's
Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce:

"Instead of distributing C$20 bills, the machine, located
in the Maritime province of New Brunswick, spat out colorful 
bills used as incentives at Canadian Tire Corp. hardware stores. 
"The Canadian Tire money was contained within a bulk of regular 
currency, and it was apparently loaded into one of our bank machines," 
said CIBC spokesman Rob MacLeod. 

The bank has refunded the money, issued apologies and
started an investigation into how the incident, on Monday, 
occurred, MacLeod said.
