The rich victims have insurance, and they can sue the bank, so that makes things even more difficult for the bank, and now an insurance company. This gets better and better.
Rich people think their wealth insulates them from annoyance and inconvenience, and yet vast amounts of it seem to only exacerbate it, which is nice. I’m glad when they are unhappy.
The boxes were only insured for up to about 10.000€ (hence the 30 million € in damages, it’s not like they know what was on those boxes, it’s just that apparently all 3.000 of those were plundered). For anything more you’d need to get an extra insurance. Guess what most people didn’t get? That’s apart from the fact that you’d need to be able to prove what was in there and was stolen from you to see any money.
Also, this isn’t some giant banking corporation where this happened, it’s the local savings bank.
Local savings bank? Do you think it’s like the old West, where the customers deposits are kept on the bank’s safe? A small local savings and loan does business just like a big bank. If they get robbed, they have the same protections as a big bank.
If you have so much money in one account that it isn’t covered by insurance, that’s on you. 99% of people’s account would be completely covered. I seriously don’t care about rich people losing their money.
It’s Robin Hood time, baby. Just leave small local businesses alone. But it’s fair game for big corporations.
People who aren’t rich keep documents, like divorce papers and birth certificates, in their safety deposit boxes, which the thieves don’t want. They only steal the jewelry and cash that the rich people are hiding.
I doubt they went through the items. They cracked the box and emptied it into a bag. Paper can be valuable depending what’s on it, they figure that out later.
Nah, these are bank robbers, it isn’t a movie. They want a quick turnover for their haul. If they open it, and it’s full of paper, they just drop it, and go to the next one, hoping its jewelry or cash. No sense filling your bag with heavy paper that may or may not be valuable, and is difficult to fence in any case. You’d hate to get near the end, and have no more room for gold and jewels, because youve got a lot of divorce papers.
Fantasy? Not really, I’ve read a few books by bank robbers and jewel thieves, and I have decent Critical Thinking Skills, so I’m speculating based on a little knowledge of that world. It’s not Nakatomi Plaza, they aren’t looking for bearer bonds, they want a quick score, a quick turnover, and a quick trip out of town, preferably within 24 hours. They don’t want to be putting out feelers for fencing well documented paper that will immediately lead straight back to them.
It’s pretty easy to tell if an envelope is holding papers or lumpy stuff like jewelry, just by looking at it. Also, it’s a paper envelope, so a quickly poked hole will verify if it’s worth the trouble.
If I’m a thief, and my assignment is going through safe deposit boxes, I’m not wasting my time on paper.

Not everyone who has money in a bank or valuables in a safe deposit box is rich.

Oh is that what they did in your fantasy? I guess the way to thwart a bank robber is to put cash and jewels inside an envelope.
