Question 4
A life policy has been in force for six years. During claim review, the insurer discovers that the insured was age 54 at issue, not age 49 as stated.

A prospective annuity owner proposes a large single premium using cashier's checks from unrelated third parties, refuses to explain the source of funds, and asks how soon the contract can be surrendered. What should the producer do first?
