This is ridiculous, claiming someone's lockbox is abandoned because they haven't called the bank in under some cases only 1 year?!! And it only
gets worse:

Under PATRIOT Act II, if the government claims an "emergency" it has given itself the "right" to confiscate the contents of any safe
deposit box.

Well I know what I'm NOT doing with my precious valuables!!
