Fun with a bank's secret questions and answers

Mark Frauenfelder 11:50 am Mon May 3, 2010

Laszlo Thoth's bank has a security procedure that uses customer-created questions and answers. When you call the bank, the customer service rep asks you the question, and you provide the answer. Here are some sample Q&A's that Thoth and his readers came up with.

Q: Need any weed? Grass? Kind bud? Shrooms?

A: No thanks hippie, I'd just like to do some banking.

Q: What the hell is your fucking problem, sir?

A: This is completely inappropriate and I'd like to speak to your supervisor.

Q: Are you really who you say you are?

A: No, I am a Russian identity thief.

Q: Your voice is really turning me on.

A: I like where this is going. Tell me more.

Q: Do you know the answer to your secret question?

A: I'm sorry, I'm having trouble hearing you. Can you repeat that?

Feel free to add your own in the comments.
