Over a decade ago, Social Security sucked money out of my bank account.

1. Something similar happened to my father's bank account after he died.

My father died on November 21, 2013. He was a retired military officer (31 years). The government took back the total month of retirement pay rather than pro-rating it since he lived three weeks into the month of November. There was no warning. They just took it back.
