Fwd:safe deposit boxes- a true story

[Guest guest]

I use a small locally owned bank and know

all the tellers very well. I had heard a rumor that ALL banks were

briefed by Homeland Security about a new procedure last fall.

I casually asked a female teller when she had her homeland security

briefing-- Nov. or Dec? She asked how I knew about the secret

briefing.. I said I was a stockholder and tried to keep up on the

bank's progress.

She said the stockholders were not to be informed --only bank

employees.

 

She looked around to see if anyone could

hear us.. I said not to worry, I would keep quiet(she obviously did

not know me).

 

She said that in case of a financial panic or

another 911 or some other catastrophe, martial law, one could not

get into their safe deposit box unless a person with HS was

present. I asked why and she said they were looking for

terrorists.. I asked what a terrorist would have in a safe deposit

box? She said large amounts of cash, gold, silver, guns, drugs,

etc. She said HS would confiscate it.

She asked me again not to mention the conversation-- she could lose

her job.

 

This is the truth. Find a friendly teller

at your bank--confirm it. Read the small print on your safe deposit

box contract.. Hell, read the small print on your checking and

savings agreement. Once you put the money in the bank- you lose

control and possibly your money.. Ask the customers at Northern Rock in

England this year.

I agree with you on this!

I don't remember my source but I heard this some time ago and it truly makes a world of sense.

Some-things I believe, some I want to believe even if hard to believe.

Thanks much for this info; it's worth investigating. I

guess in the back of my mind I've been wondering about

such a move.
