Bank Robbery!! Will they get your money? JUST LIKE JOHN DILLINGER AND BONNIE & CLYDE In the last century, there were a lot of bank robberies. And a lot of bank robbers, too. Bonnie & Clyde. John Dillinger, Pretty Boy Floyd. Baby Face Nelson. Jesse & Frank James. And those are just a few. They weren't alone though. They each had a gang. The gang would walk into a bank, pull their guns, and announce the robbery. They would take the money, blow town, and split up the loot somewhere out in the boondocks. One gang kidnapped the local sheriff. They then robbed a bank with him in tow. They drove out of town and split the loot. They tied the sheriff up to a fence post on a farm. Since the sheriff was with them when they robbed the bank, they left him a share of the loot that they just stole. Presumably, on the ground next to the fence post. But gangs don't rob banks much anymore. The risk is not worth it. There are cameras everywhere. There are silent alarms. They really can't get much money anyway. Each teller may have only a few thousand dol- lars in their drawer. And, when a silent bank alarm comes into the police station, the cops usually arrive at the bank in a minute or two. No, it's not gangs much anymore. It's people that want a few extra bucks and decide to rob a bank to get it. They aren't very smart either. A couple of years ago, some guy robbed our First Secure Bank in Oak Forest, Illinois. Just before robbing the bank, he stopped at the drug store next to the bank and made a credit card purchase. Then he robbed the bank. Bank cameras recorded him in the drug store parking lot as well as on and in the bank property. The drug store inside cameras recorded him making a credit card purchase. Not too bright. As far as we know, he is still in the slammer. You have probably done your banking with a local bank for several years. You may have seen ads from your bank offering high rate CD's, Money Market or Savings Accounts. But, don't think that they are going to pay you that much. You are only a long term loyal customer. Read the fine print in the ads and you may see terms like "New Money Only" or "Money not on deposit with XXXXX bank for the past XXXX." You know what that means? It means that you've been robbed out of a higher rate. Your bank is willing to pay someone who is not a customer a higher rate than they are willing to pay you, a longtime loyal customer. If you don't like the idea of your bank robbing you, come to First Secure Community Bank of Joliet. We don't have, and have never had, a product that required New Money Only. The 4.80% CD rate or 2.23% Savings rate that you see advertised is the same for everyone. Current customer, New customer. $1,000 or $100,000.
