2 isn't a threat, and there is prime examples of criminals finding
people with banks accounts with the same banks that they have
fraudulently accessed so they can transfer funds and the poor sap
thinking he will get a cut is left paying the bill long after the
fraudster picks up the money from the nearest western union...

1 isn't impossible, many people have to get background checks by police
for a variety of reasons, you don't need to do the work for this, the
people can do it themselves, mind you the loop hole with this is they
get some other sap to be a puppet board which has no power, but will get
round any problems with criminal history. This situation occurs all the
time when one person has declared bankrupt and can't run a company, so
they get someone else to run it on their behalf.
