Yes anything over like $15k is flagged by the US government, which is why most rich people have off shore accounts with banks whose records can't be subpoenaed by them. She and Zion made a huge mistake there as it both implicated her and makes her responsible for taxes. Unless she sends the money out to another account and never goes back to the states, she's losing 40% to taxes. She can still claim he offered it to her because his late wife had originally and wanted her to have it, but it makes her a suspect
Not so fun fact: whether she goes back to the states or not, she still owes the US government taxes on it. US citizens are required to pay taxes on income earned overseas. If they claim it was “gift” there’s still a 40% gift tax for anything over like $17K.
