Help me figure out what I'm doing wrong here.

I did a "Trace a transfer" mission, and find myself looking at a million-dollar bank account. Not being one to let opportunities pass, I decide to take it.

Thank god I backed up my profile, because no matter what I do, I get caught.

At first, I had a myriad of bank accounts all over everywhere. However, if I transfer it to one of them, even if I delete the logs (Connection and transfer, both ends) right away, I'm disavowed within two minutes.

Only explanation I could come up with was that I had started the accounts without bouncing, so they looked at they're logs and saw that 127.0.0.1 opened the account, and arrest me.
So I start another account off a bounced connection, delete the route logs.

This time, I don't get caught. In my glee, I spend all but 900 of the 1.2 mil I stole on upgrades and software.

I start doing file stealing missions, and end up with 4 gateways locked up from sucking at VSEC, so I fastforward time a few days.....

....And get arrested. Game over screen says it was for that stupid bank. I got a pair of emails right before it cut me off, but I was fastforwarding and couldn't see what they were. Probably my wireless router being seized, fat lot of good it did me.

I broke the connection log chain, I deleted the transfer logs, I got a huge rating bump-up.....

Where did I go wrong? Is it because the account I transfered to was at the same bank I stole from?
Did they (Good god, I hope not) track me from my purchases?
Is it just some bizzare, unfortunate bug? (Hope not, I kinda have to have that money or I can't afford the software to do any more jobs)

I've attacked this silly bank from about 5 or six different angles, and get caught every time.

Oh, and before anyone goes "What version of Log_Deleter are you using?", v.4, of course.

I believe this is a reoccuring bug. Have you tried transferring the stolen money to your Uplink bank account, deleting the transfer logs (on both ends), and closing the non-Uplink account?

No I haven't.
I'll have to give that a try, after I use some of it to buy bypass software, so I don't trip any sort of trace.

And while I'm at it, and due to a lack of better things to do, why not bounce it around all over everywhere?

Indeed, why not?

That's exactly what I do.

Don't forget to grab all the phone links off of the telephone database.
