I think someone tipped off the thief before the victim left the bank. One time I stopped by my
bank to withdraw a large sum in cash, and they asked me to come back in a couple of days. If he had made such an appointment, or even if the bank happened to have that much on hand, it would have taken some time to count it. Maybe he’ll get that much back and more from a GoFundMe that someone sets up... ETA: I see that 3 others thought of the GoFundMe while I was typing the above text. |

SO...
The guys name is cornholio The random strong arm robber randomly hit the random customer who just left the bank with $200,000.00 in cash. Um-hmm and a go-fund me account was set up to assist the guy who just randomly got robbed by a random strong arm bandit. and someone was there to film it all. If it seems to good to be true it probably is. |

Definite scam.
Looking at the pictures, which were totally coincidentally snapped by a "bystander"  , that looks like a regular little bank bag. No fucking way is there $200k in that little ass bag. Large sums of paper money are just that..... LARGE

If he had made such an appointment, or even if the bank happened to have that much on hand, it would have taken some time to count it.. If a branch bank doesn’t have that much cash, they’ll order it from the fed (or main vault) which is your two days. If they do have it in stock and still enough to cover every day transactions, counting $200k won’t take long at all unless you’re an asshole who wants to physically watch them count every bill. They have bill counters for this and if they know you’re coming will have them in bound bricks you just come in and go. $200k in $100 bills can slip right into your cargo pockets. If it’s in $20 notes, you’ll have 10 fat bricks of $20k with 10 individual $2k straps. Simple backpack can move that without any attention. |

First, this is a daily mail article
 Second, was the IRS notified about this withdraw? Third, if he has that much money in cash he should have called Brinks or some other money transport service to deliver the 200k to his home under armed guard. This whole thing smells of co.uk bullshit. |
