Perhaps it's an InSiminator glitch? I don't recall it happening when I moved townies in the normal way.
It's definitely not exclusive to the Insimenator, but the one common thing here among the reports seems to be that most people are saying they used some sort of cheat or otherwise played around with the files to move in a sim that you're normally not supposed to be able to move in, at least not in the way they were moved in.

I think you're on to something there,
I've moved in the occasional townie/NPC for various Challenges and have only had the windfall when snatching them in a 'cheating' way. I just use PE to get rid of the extra money, or have them donate it to the 'Jean Pool' in each neighbourhood (who is simply there for the purpose of creating a pretty adoption pool and doesn't matter)
I suppose messing with parts of the game not meant to be messed with can affect the distribution of the townies' apparent endless wealth. (think of the money you'd save by being homeless and filling your hunger, social and other needs in others' homes)

This just happened to me last night. I had four adults and a child living in a house, and then I had one of the adults take the child and move out - I was going to have it be two of the adults and didn't click right. Ooops, well, I figured I'd have them ask her to move in after they moved.
So I moved them into the House of Fallen Trees downtown, because he was a new vampire and I didn't feel like messing with creating a basement or anything. Teleported over the other adult and had him ask her to move in - she brought something like 6,000,000 simoleons. She was born in-game, not a townie, and all they had had at their old house was something like 200,000 at the most :P So it was only "cross-neighborhood" in this case if you count the fact it was going from the main neighborhood to its attached downtown. Well, now they have a fortune to go with the vampire house and the vampire in the basement. *snerk*
