Please explain to me why I need to tell anyone about why i need to use my money however I see fit or any other personal details about myself

It's so stupid. Like a money laundering person or criminal is going to be truthful. They just have to make something up and be consistent.

Has anybody ever been denied the withdrawal for not saying anything? Will it just flag you for some reason.

Seriously, is there any reason not to respond with "I cut grass" or "I'm a go-cart racer"? Not being silly, just curious if there is any reason to give a truthful response? You aren't signing an affidavit or anything.


Yeah. Because most transactions are legitimate, and achieving social media clout from clever answers isn’t worth the headache when you get flagged and need to provide explanations for sophomoric responses.

the bank teller asked me for my occupation
"I work in national security and if I tell you what I do, unfortunately, I'd have to terminate you, afterwards, so best if we just leave it at that, okay?"

There isn’t a thing they can do. I deposited $18k two weeks ago from selling a watch. Told them I made the money cutting grass. There’s nothing they can do I have all the information if they come after me. I’d only be worried if I was doing something illegal.


Lying about it when it is from a perfectly legal deal is incredibly dumb. You’re asking for an investigation and potential fraud charge for something that is otherwise legal.

Don't be a douchebag. The bank has no reason to know where my money goes or comes from. They aren't required to obtain this information, they're asking because they think they should. If it was required, you'd have to sign an affidavit. You have no idea if Losheikra the bank teller writes what you say anyway.

They’re required to have written AML policies and to enforce those policies. Not all banks have the same policies, but they’re not asking for shits and giggles either.
