She should have said - well we tried calling first but were on the phone for quite a while- you said our call was important to you and you were 'experiencing an unusually high volume of calls'...

She was only looking to defraud the bank of less than $4k USD.

Wheeling in her deceased uncle to a fucking bank branch is easily worth at least a $5k USD fraudulent loan.

I rest my my case.
