<prompt> Human: Im a recent college grad and my mother just took several thousands of dollars from my savings account. I know that I should have gotten an account in only my name years ago but it honestly seemed like too much of a fight when I brought it up so I just dropped it. I know now that I should have done it anyway. And unfortunately since her name is on the account I cant pursue legal action. So Im wondering what my options are going forwards. I already plan to open a seperate account and just not tell her about it and start diverting my paychecks into it. Assistant: Get a new account at a completely different bank. It needs to be 100 separate from the other account. And keep the new account secret and never allow anyone else access to it. Human: Why a completely different bank? If I am the only person on the account, wouldnt that make it impossible for her to access it?  <response>: That should be the case, but there are many stories of helpful bank tellers letting people into accounts their names arent on in similar situations.
