I'll bet it's a prop for some kind of OWS themed film shoot.

We'll probably see it online in the coming weeks.

Not for a film shoot. The credit card 'guillotine' was likely part of the demonstrations. I didn't see that display while I was at the marches and rallies, but I saw another one that featured a large mock-up of a dollar bill that had been converted into a stocks--and some people were stopping to put their head into the 'stocks' and have pics taken.
