I worked for a law firm in Australia representing a resources company. This company had decided to buy a mine. I saw a bank statement, with an initial deposit of $200 to open the "checking" account, an ATM withdrawal, and then on the date of settlement, 12 deposits of "US$100M" each from entities like "Chase Manhattan Holdings" and other corporate banks.
The end result was a balance somewhere in the order of $1.5B AUD - the number overflowed the little shaded box for balances.
Perhaps entirely unsurprisingly, the case that this bank statement was being used in? "ATO vs [Client]" (ATO being the Australian Tax Office) for "deficiencies in income declaration"...
