D secretly obtains V's cheque card and withdraws £200 from V's bank account at a cash point. V only had £150 in his bank account. Which of the following represents the law:
A) D has appropriated and stolen a debt owed to V by the bank of the credit balance in his account, ie: £150. V had no right to any further money and therefore, D has not stolen the further £50 from V. D will, though, have committed a fraud offence in relation to the entire amount. See next chapter.
B) V owned £150 in exact notes and coins but no more. Therefore D has stolen only £150.
C) D has stolen nothing because you cannot appropriate intangible property.
D) D has stolen the entire amount from the bank.
