It’s usually best not to reply to such vague statements. Often, if you just sit there quietly, they’ll elaborate to fill the awkward silence.

Do you mean to tell me that "you've got nothing to hide"?
Like no bodies at all?

Thanks. I'll use that tactic whenever someone says "I've got nothing to hide".

I've got nothing left to hide. "Never put off until tomorrow what you can accomplish today" and all that.

Ask: "how quickly do you need to get rid of it, and how much cash have you got right now?"

When I was a GM at dollar tree I had an employee who would try to flirt with me. One day she asked “can you keep a secret?”

I replied “no I can’t”
