It is a well-stocked ATM machine that can supply ninety thousand dollars every twenty four hours to just one loyal customer. What Mr Philip Mark Sr. really wants, or rather the one pretending to be him, is my personal details. By giving them, he can then open an account in my name and steal my identity. Someone wanting an ATM card linked to someone else’s 10 million dollar balance will greedily exchange that information. One man’s greed plays on another’s.

He who is greedy for gain troubles his own house, But he who hates bribes will live. Proverbs 15:27
