A Brazilian woman, Erica Nunes, took the body of an elderly man she introduced as her uncle to a bank to try to get a loan. According to local media, the request was for a loan of 17,000 Brazilian reals (3,000 euros).
Suspicious bank employees filmed the incident and called the police. The woman was reportedly taken into custody and the strange video soon went viral on social media. Nunes reportedly introduced herself as the elderly man's niece. “Uncle, are you listening? You have to sign, if you don't sign, there's no way, because I can't sign for you,” Nunes said in the video.
“It's not good, the color of it,” said a bank clerk. “That's right, it doesn't say anything, uncle, you have to go back to the hospital,” Nunes replied.
