Gambling and honesty with change, sentence 14

If a cash machine gives £60 instead of £40, the £20 extra is not yours; banks usually find such errors and take the money back anyway.

Who acts: cash machine, £ extra, banks · What happens: give, not be, find, take back · To what, where: £ 60, yours, such errors, money
