Woman who took a CORPSE into a bank for 'loan scam' is caught on camera ... trends now
A woman who took her dead 'uncle' to a bank in Brazil for a 'loan scam' was seen transporting the body in a taxi and even getting the unwitting cabbie to help her put him into a wheelchair - potentially revealing a crucial detail that could see her jailed.
Érika de Souza Vieira Nunes, 42, was seen in CCTV footage taking a rideshare car with Paulo Roberto Braga to a bank in Bangu, Rio de Janeiro, before attempting to withdraw 17,000 reais (about £2,600) on April 16.
