Wells Fargo says 3.5 million accounts involved in scandal
August 31, 2017 /
Wells Fargo is now saying 3.5 million accounts were impacted by its fake accounts scandal, a dramatic increase from the 2.1 million accounts it originally estimated.
After the bank acknowledged in September 2016 that its employees opened 2.1 million accounts without getting customers’ permission, Wells Fargo agreed to look for fake accounts going back an additional two years to 2009. This was because news reports showed that problems at Wells started before 2011, which is what Wells originally admitted.
