If you are a legitimate customer of Chase Manhattan Bank (most recently, and more properly known as JPMorgan Chase & Co.), then you would know that there is no legitimate reason for wanting to defeat their elaborate and specific procedures to prevent automated access to their user account information.

More importantly, if you were a legitimate customer of that enterprise, you would not want to bypass their security procedures. Much less have a mechanism for doing so advertised to every would be HaXoR (read:Organised criminal) that might visit this site.

If you were a legitimate customer, and if you had made even the most cursory of enquiries of that bank as to what facilities were available for the secure, automated access to your account parameters, then you would not be asking such transparently nefarious and obviously stupid questions on an open-to-all forum.

Of course, knowing this place pretty well. the same people who will deny help, or even pointers, to those they perceive (rightly or wrongly) of looking for help with "homework", will probably expend untold effort to provide assistance for those looking to bypass the security protocols of a banking organisation... so long as it isn't their bank.

After all, organised criminals would never pretend to be naive enough to actually ask for help in breaking the security protocols of second largest bank in the USA, whilst simultaneously admitting that they had already done so for the first largest bank in the USA.

Holy [the worst expletive you can think of!] This is a screwed-up world.

And the most obvious indicator here of just how screwed-up it is, is the reaction that a post--perceived by one or two self-righteously moralistic monks as "homework"--will receive. They will pontificate about the morality of assisting teenagers with their homework, and yet, those same self-righteous monks will happily and repeatedly post code to automate the download of copyright images; defeat Captcha protocols; and any number of other procedures of dubious legality.
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
