"ignorant of banking customs and privileges" LOL, thats funny. I'm sure they were VERY aware of what could happen to their money in a bank.

I'm surprised there isn't a Name of a Bank after it.
It reads like an Ad.

Banking "privileges" LOL once they have your Money,
your at their Mercy when it comes time to get it back out
