It could happen to you too
My personal and business banking is done at Chase. I've found them to be fantastic and managed to avoid pretty much any fees by following the guidance of very helpful employees. I know everyone loves to bag on big banks, but Chase has been great. Bank of America is another story - their website barely works.<p>That said, I highly recommend anyone with significant assets open a bank account in a foreign country where seizing assets is much more difficult. Keep a reasonable sum there and know how to transfer the rest quickly if you fear legal action.
