It Depends:

Yes - If you have defaulted on your loan repayments to the bank and there were some fresh funds deposited into your account after a long time

Yes - If you were involved in illegal activities like money laundering, drugs, etc.

Yes - If there is a court order to block your account

If you don't come under any of the 3 above mentioned categories, then the bank cannot close your account and hold your money.

What happens to the money if you close an account and forgot there was money in there?

Actually such a scenario wouldn't occur. When a bank account is closed, the bank would release all the funds held in that account to the account holder on the same day the account is closed. Even if they can't do it immediately, they would have sent a check to the customer by post/mail. Banks cannot hold on to the funds of a bank account that was closed. It is mandatory for them to return the funds to the customer once his account is closed.

Will bank hold the wire transfer fund if account number is mistaken added by extra digits?

It Depends. If there is a valid bank account including the extra digits you put in by mistake, funds will be transferred to that account. The bank will not take any liability out of this wrong transaction that arose out of your mistake in entering the account number incorrectly. But, if there is no valid account with those numbers then the transaction will be cancelled and the money will be deposited back into your account. If by chance, money got deposited into the wrong account, you have to file a legal complaint to get your money bank. The bank can only provide details of to whose account the money was deposited and will not help you out to get the money back.
