WILL BANKS CRASH ON APRIL 3?

LONDON (Wireless Flash) -- A financial disaster may be brewing that could cause a worldwide bank crash on Monday (Apr. 3). A grass roots group hopes to encourage the global withdrawal of millions of dollars on Monday to protest unfair bank surcharges. Here's how it works: everyone with a bank account is supposed to write checks in the amount of one penny to five of their friends and instruct them to cash the checks on Monday. The idea behind the penny-ante protest is that the banks will see Monday's massive withdrawal as a sign customers are angry over excessive surcharges on ATM machines and so on. London-based participant Fraser Clark claims the cost to banks could be colossal since folks from as far away as Iceland have told him they'll be participating.
