Is there any way the FDIC can take over a bank and not report it?

My bank where I have been for 20 years all of a sudden has all new employees. Never seen one of them before. I also notice all these new employees who not one of them I recognize are all wearing the same identical government blue blazers. They look like post office personnel or something? Its kind of creepy.

6. No

Possibly there was a huge turnover in employees.
Possibly your bank got uniforms.

8. Or some irregularities were found and it is some other type of federal agency running the place?

11. That's the best advice.

You can also talk to the bank manager,
give him a call or talk to him in the bank.
