IRS Seized $107,000 from Him. He’s Fighting to Get It Back
- sesutton 11y agoCan he sue his bank for advising his niece to commit a crime?
- maxerickson 11y agoHe can try. I think it's a lot more likely that the teller was lazy than than it is the bank had an official policy of making such recommendations (which is probably what it would take to hold the bank responsible). It's also possible his flabbergast is manufactured and that he was indeed trying to avoid the reporting regulations.
