A lien would definitely require a legal judgement, but that would come pretty automatically when you failed to pay back the money that wasn't yours.
You'd possibly also owe income taxes on the amount you didn't pay back. It would be a real mess.
If you couldn't get a lot of it out at once and get out of extradition range, I don't think it would be worth trying anything.

You're probably right.
On the other hand. I'd be willing to bet there is probably a certain high level of clearance the bank employee needs to have when wiring such large amounts. And I pretty sure wires take a good amount of time, which probably means they do some checks and balances.
This is why my approach would be to put what you can in bitcoin when you can, while trying to not trigger any alarm bells.
Then be ready to plead to the courts that you have a gambling problem and pray for a favorable sentence.
