There are criminal penalties (fines and jail time) for violating the economic sanctions against Syria, you can't blame Chase too much for being cautious.

Right. It might be a case that the bank knew it’s ridiculous too, but once it was flagged they had to investigate. When investigating they had to ask some script questions expecting some specific answers. Sometimes you have to read between the lines and see what they really would want you to say to move on, and they can’t spell it out as they’d be audited and scrutinized.
