Wells Fargo They stole over $100k from my safety deposit box Encino, California

when you get a chance, okay?

Thank You

I'd be willing to bet your safe box contract specifically states NOT to keep cash in your safe deposit box.

1: How do you prove there was money in there, especially if it would be a violation of yourcontract to keep cash there in the first place.

2: Banks DO NOT witness what you put in there, or at least they're not supposed to. Did anyone see you put stuff in thebox? If so, then that's a whole newcan of worms.

3. The bank I work for (NOT Wells) does NOT have any key to a client's safe box. We keep teh guard key (the "master" that always has to be put in) but that key WILL NOT OPEN the box without one of your keys with it, and they do NOT keep additional keys. I am not sure how you had new keys made, but if they indeed went in there, have details prepared as to how they would have acquired another key. Without YOUR key, the box has to be drilled, and I find it hard to believe enough collusion in the branch could have occurred to have a drilling arranged for no reason at all, unless you are delinquent on your safe box payment.

There's more to this story, I think. I'm not saying someone couldn't have stolen your money, but it's not as easy as you seem to think it would be.

that I forgot to include one other documentary that you might want to watch on the web.

publicly held and listed on the stock exchange.

How long had it been since you last went into your safe deposit box?  Normally if you don't pay your safe deposit box rental fee they can lock your box up for a while and then send in the items within the box to unclaimed property for your state.  I would recommend going online to your state's unclaimed property and seeing if you have anything there.  If that happened they would of had to drill the boxes and that takes a while.  You might want to check with who told you that it is easy to duplicate safe deposit box keys.  I promise you it is not.  No locksmith can even duplicate those keys without special equipment and most of the people who have that equipment are security companies. 

Also it should be pretty obvious that someone would walk out of there with $100K.  At most that is 10 straps of 100s and my guess is you did not have that strapped so they would have had to put that money in their pockets which would have stuck out.  Even if you had it strapped that is still a lot of straps to conceal.  Even though the branch does not have cameras in there I guarantee you they have cameras pointed at the vault which means they can monitor anything at anytime.  But safe deposit boxes are the bank's liability not yours.  If you claim that an item is missing you need to notify the bank and then it is the banks responsibility to make sure all operations were followed and that they will investigate I pomise you.

Good luck to you I know this must suck

and get them involved, as well as filing a Police report.
