Wells Fargo class action claims bank does not reimburse customers for fraud
Top Class Actions
Wells Fargo fraud class action overview:
- Who: Wells Fargo is being sued by two of its customers.
- Why: The plaintiffs say the bank routinely holds its customers liable when they are defrauded.
- Where: The Wells Fargo fraud class action lawsuit was filed in a Pennsylvania federal court.
A new class action lawsuit alleges that Wells Fargo does not reimburse its customers when they are defrauded and suffer unauthorized electronic fund transfers from their accounts.
Plaintiffs Jennifer Rice and Erik Westervelt filed the complaint against Wells Fargo Bank National Association on June 17 in Pennsylvania federal court.
The two Wells Fargo customers say that when thousands of dollars were illegally stolen from their joint accounts with the bank, Wells Fargo repeatedly refused to reimburse them — even though they should not have been liable for the losses under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act.
