If I'm not mistaken burglary, theft and robbery insurance covers up to $200,000. If so and he had it, it may be a double up. I can't reason why a lawyer?

What's the need for all that cash? Why not just do an online transfer?

I hate carrying cash...prefer to do all my purchases with credit/debit cards, or even Apple Pay. Only reason I have cash is for the couple Mexican restaurants / taco trucks that only accept it.

I'm thinking more along the lines of some underworld criminal disguising a debt payment as a robbery.

Why cash? Even a cashier’s check would have been more convenient and traceable if stolen. Getting 200k in cash would have required a lot of trouble on his part since I don’t think banks carry that much on hand these days so would need advanced notice and extra procedures to do so.

Hmm, this makes even more sense. Not sure if it's the same for Filipinos but there's a boatload of Vietnamese degenerates that are gambling addicts. A broker I worked with owed hundreds of thousands to some real bad dudes. At one point they were just randomly stalking him. We would have coffee and some scary looking tatted up dude would just pull up and make small talk. He told me they'd park across the street from his house on random days. Needless to say, I stopped dealing with the degenerate.

But why would you risk brining police attention to such activity? You certainly wouldn't want to try and double down on the risk by involving an insurance company, who is certain to investigate it on their own as well.

Francisco Cornejo hiring a lawyer has me leaning toward insurance fraud. If he has theft and robbery insurance I'd lay odds on it.

I don't see anyone dragging $200,000 in cash. A cashiers check would be the way to go. If he wanted to pay individual bills he could put the money in a interest earning checking account, pay bills or whatever and make money on the interest.

The alleged victim would have to make arrangements in advance with bank management, as your local retail branch would never carry $200K in cash. In fact, the branch manager would attempt to dissuade a customer from taking cash.

This sounds like either an insurance or gofundme scam. The individual who took the video should also be questioned.

I don’t get the insurance theories.

How can you insure $200k in cash? How do you buy such a policy? Why would you buy such a policy?

He had his life savings in the bank. While it’s in the bank, it’s FDIC insured up to $100k?

So he would only need a policy when he withdraws the money? So, before he went to withdraw the money, he went to buy a $200k policy that covers him from theft?

If he had insurance, why would he fight with the thief? That's the whole point in getting insurance? If I knew I was insured in that situation, I'd just let them take the money and then file the claim.

The gofundme scam about that couple that "helped" the homeless guy comes to mind.

Especially when you have no guarantee that the insurance company would pay off.
