    Death /Books Interesting Question

    Does anyone know of anyone who has first hand knowledge of a situation where a client has an offshore account and has died. How hard do the books usually make it for any heirs? Do they put them thru hell? Or for the the executors? I guess we all know what happens when a sole intestate individual passes, or to someone who keeps their accounts secret(no one knows of accounts, so books keep $$). Anyway, just wondering..........anyone shed any light on this interesting area?

    In any case, guess it's good advice to always leave your account #'s with a trusted individual

    Maybe if you have 10k in accounts, anything less not worth the hassle

    Even then I doubt books would pay out

    If you live in America, and the offshores did that, I don't know who you really would have to complain to.

    better quetion how many accounts at sportsbooks are dormant with dead clients? guaranteed most people who have sportsbook accounts after they drop dead nobody knows or cares or could even access them to find out. im sure books are sitting on a lot of DEAD money as we speak.

    if the book is licensed in the country of its jurisdiction
    and the laws say that a spouse has rights to the account
    then there could be an avenue.
    it depends on the laws.
    for example if you are Costa Rican and have account with X
    or if the book is under the laws of Curacao, etc.
