So it goes like this 

In Arizona pulls death certs from website over ID theft fears

Crim: Can I have some credit, please?

Bank: Tell me you name, address, DOB, mother's maiden name, etc

Crim: <reads from death cert>

Bank: All that appears correct except you're dead. How much would you like?

If banks are that stupid they deserve all they get - its just a shame us regular punters get to pay for it in the end.
