TD,
I understand what you're saying, but rather than help by potentially placing myself in danger, I would encourage them to remove themselves from the danger. Everyone is safer that way. Including you.
Just my .02

Re: First dilemma as a CHL holder...
Definitely change banks. Any reputable bank would have called the authorities as well as the customer. This is theft. Period. And if it has continued, which I inferred, since the bank notified to customer, I would consider litigation against the bank as well as moving my business elsewhere.
It sounds like the bank has a LOT of explaining to do. As well as make whatever reparations for the losses are required by law.
Then again, there may be a lot more to this than meets the eye. If the substantial wealth described has come through recent inheritances and such, it could be a family member with knowledge of all the account information, not happy with their slice of the pie, trying to even it all out. Just another bad scenario there, but just as likely as an inside job by a bank employee. The net of suspicion on this one should be cast very widely.
Definitely believe that you are not a bodyguard. These folks have the same rights to protect themselves as we do. If they don't own weapons, they should get them and train with them. They should carry under MPA in their vehicle and on their person in their own home. Next step would be CHL.
While I am perfectly capable of using a firearm in extremis, I would not go to anyone's house to protect them. They can come to mine where I can defend them. I would not go where there is a much higher likelihood of trouble than my brain finds acceptable. There is risk in everything we do, and danger everywhere we go as it is...I don't need any extra.....IMHO, of course.
