You work at a large bank in the new accounts department where you open accounts for new customers. The bank has a policy that pays bonuses related to the number of new accounts opened. Your manager tells you that many of the accounts are for small depositors. He suggests that when opening a new savings account for customers, you can add another account, such as a credit card, without them being aware of it.

You know that opening an account without the approval of the customer is not proper, but you also know the person may never know who opened it. Anyway, your manager suggested it and bonus money sounds good.

Ephesians 4:25 says "Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body" (New International Version).
