NEW TITLE: Bank of America poised for temporary shut-down. What about other banks?
Posted October 2nd, 2008 by Rubiebaby

I just received this in an email from a friend of mine. Also, a very close friend of mine who works for a local bank called me today and told me to "get my money out". That's all she would say.

This is the email I got:

"Reliable word that Bank of America branch managers just received a letter or memo from the USFed instructing them to perhaps be ready for a one-week universal shut-down of the banking system, including access to checking accounts, savings accounts and credit cards. Reliable word has it that BofA bank branches received a shipment of signs last week, reading “We're sorry, but due to circumstances beyond our control, we cannot be open at this time.”

Then if it's true, then maybe America is in another Great Depression, or at least at the start of it. If it's not, then someone's in some serious trouble.

This sounds like a variation on a hoax already spotted on Snopes...

I thought that was the case. Plus, I'm glad you posted this site. Looks kind of cool and interesting.
