Surely the bank giving the wrong people their money is a huge problem too?

I know they mitigate it by trying to claim it's a customer's money and not their responsibility, but that doesn't always work for them.

It works enough. They've managed to push the term "identity theft" into the public consciousness as a description of the problem, when the real problem is that they can't be bothered to actually identify people.
