The screen messages from the patron fines are formatted like this:

AV $4.75 "F" The twentieth century : 04/20/2018 23:59

Where "F" is the accounttype from accountlines. This should display as the
human readable 'Overdue fine'.

The list of these messages is hard coded in Koha, and is documented here:

The accounttype 'FU' is particularly problematic when it shows on user
displays, because it's a common abbreviation for an obscenity in English.
