Our management doesn’t want us to do any training on the warning signs of internal fraud. They have stated that if we don’t talk about it staff won’t consider embezzlements. Besides they tell us something like this won’t happen here!

When a customer notifies us of a potential fraudulent activities on their account, we place the account on a "restricted" status (any debits trying to hit will reject and have to be worked manually) for a maximum of 90 days. Is it safe to remove the restricted status if no fraudulent activities occur? What would be the best way to handle day 91?

We have three restaurants that are owned by the same individual, and each of the businesses has a cash deposit just about every day. Our operations manager wants our tellers to combine the cash deposits of the three companies for CTR filing, because the same individual benefits from deposits to all three accounts. Is that correct?

We received a levy, and the customer has a CD that is pledged as security on a loan. Does our perfected security interest trump the levy or do we have to exercise our right of offset (cash the CD and pay the loan) in order to not be required to satisfy the levy with it? Secondly, if a customer we get a levy on has both deposit accounts and loans, do we have to exercise our right of offset or does simply that right trump the levy. Can the bank say there are no funds available to satisfy the levy, even if the right of offset is not actually invoked, assuming the customer owes more in loans than is in the deposit account?
