This is so hilariously bizarre. Why does a customer have a bank executive's personal number? Why was the account frozen? Who did the exec think he was texting? And who was he going to be waiting for armed?

I feel invested at this point, like I've watched a movie that just cut off in the middle...

Why did the executive have customer's phone number?
The article seemed to imply the customer had been texting complaints directly to the executive, not that the executive just cold texted a customer a weird threat.
It's hard to believe a normal person would death-threat some random contact instead of blocking.
True. But since he said that he’ll be waiting at his own home that probably means that the unhappy customer was threatening to visit him which is also a bit scary…
Can you please link the URL where that conversation is actually disclosed?
I don’t think it is?

I mean I obviously think that the executive’s message is deranged but I can’t think of any other scenario why would he write something like that.

Unless he’s talking about waiting at the customer’s house …
