"In the encrypted portion of your account you can give them access to your banking, brokerage, hidden valuables, and powers of attorneys," the site says. "There won't be any bodies, so probate court will take seven years to clear your assets to your next of kin. Seven years, of course, is all the time that will be left.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm just waiting for the obvious mashup (of the Rapture/financial records, not the MoH, obvs):

HELLO, I AM MRS. SMITH FROM NIGERIA. I HAVE COME INTO POSSESSION OF THE FINANCIAL PAPERS OF A GOOD AND CHRISTIAN MAN WHO WAS RECENTLY RAPTURED AND I AM ASKING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN TRANSFERRING THE MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY.

Am now suffering from curry food coma.

Me too- I braved the pissing rain and wind and cold to go to a local Indian buffet place. Am full of vegetable korma, saag paneer, chicken tikka masala, chicken tandoori, naan, pakora, and rice pudding. NOM!
