Okay, sleuths...I've got to admit, last week's puzzle was pretty hard. So I'll take it easy on you this week. Check back every day for additional clues to this week's mystery!
The female clerical worker hired the bank to kill Hank. The note said, "I am Hank"

Sorry, Abi. Maybe you need another clue to help you solve this riddle...
Clue #3 - The note contained very specific instructions.
Hank was sent to the bank to make the usual deposit for the business he worked for. Unfortunately he had recently jilted a co-worker. In a rage she jotted out a note that said "Smile. I have a grenade, don't make me use it." and unbeknownst to Hank put it in with the deposit.
The teller did as instructed and smiled, then handed the note to the guard. He instinctively pulled out his gun. When Hank threw his hands in the air the guard panicked, thinking Hank was throwing the
grenade and shot him.
