A 66-year-old deposited 1.6 billion KRW (lease deposit money) into several bank accounts. He got hit by a voice phishing scam and transferred the whole 1.6 billion himself. The bank literally tried to stop him, saying it looked suspicious, but he insisted it was for family and forced it through anyway. Later, after realizing it was a scam, he sued the bank claiming they were also responsible. The court ruled the bank was partially negligent and ordered them to pay 30% compensation. Like, what even is this...
"Everyone is baffled that the bank is being held responsible for a guy who literally ignored their warnings and insisted on getting scammed."
