There are tons of these out there.

In late 2024 there was the whole "Infinite money glitch" tiktok trend that was just check fraud.

Good example, though my impression was that was a quasi-viral TikTok trend that caught up random fools, not organized fraud?

This is a poor example though, because I don't think anyone got away with it? And it was viral, but not organized.
