Hackers typo trips the alarm on billion-dollar cyber bank heist

Cyber bank robbers have drained $101 million from Bangladeshs central bank. The heist could have netted the crooks $1 billion if they didnt get caught when they misspelled the name of one of the places they were trying to transfer money to. The last payment request was for $20 million, with the hackers instructing Bangladesh Bank to send it to a Sri Lankan bank. That last payment was the one that raised the red alert. Bangladesh has blamed the New York Federal Reserve for getting hacked.”]
