a bank near me left the front entrance open, all the doors, the door to the safe was open aswell and no employees were there because it was the weekend. it was open, unlocked all night untill a old man went in in the morning for his pension and reported it. you'd be surprised just how many banks are left open by forgetful workers or contractors who are working in the branch.

If a 12 yo boy can break into your bank you seriously have to review your security measures.
