BREAKING NEWS – Los Angeles, California – Rigid sales quotas at Wells Fargo Bank have driven employees to open unauthorized accounts for customers, sticking them with bogus fees and damaging their credit. The civil complaint, filed Monday in state court in Los Angeles by City Atty. Mike Feuer, says the largest California-based bank encouraged its employees to engage “in unfair, unlawful and fraudulent conduct” through a pervasive culture of high-pressure sales. Wells Fargo responded by saying that they have no intentions of refunding any of the fees even thought they acknowledged that the accounts were fraudulently created. In a written statement they said, “We send out monthly statements as required by law. If our customers are not monitoring the transactions to check and see if we created any unauthorized additions or modifications, we should not be held accountable for their lack of financial responsibility.”
