Many online banks we've reviewed have been found to be vulnerable to the "currency
rounding attack". What's special about this attack? Not much, except that it seems to
be perfectly legal and allows one to make tens of thousands of EUR/USD per day. Read

I believe the term is "arbitrage" (not rounding attacks).
