They might be able to confirm that a given name actually has a given bank account #--but without the right documents, it's possible they can only "confirm" by depositing money in the account.
What signed docs give them, is the right to sue if the person lied, which can be difficult to do if they don't have the person's legal name in the first place. And verifying ID can be difficult in the best of circumstances... but I suspect that they're not even doing the most basic of checks; not even insisting on a phone # or an email and calling or writing the person and requiring that a real person reply.
