I once had a banking app that reported the wrong transaction amounts (downloading the statements resulted in a different balance than what was shown in my account -- this isn't the US, so it should show the correct amount). When I reported the bug, they changed the values on my statements instead of fixing the app -- so now, it didn't reflect my receipts.
It was a fun time. They eventually fixed it in the app to show my true balance and fixed my statements back to what it was. But holy shit, the fact that an engineer would think that would be the proper fix is wild... this is pre-llms, otherwise, I'd think they'd been vibe-coding.
