NEW BRUNSWICK — A Somerset County woman is suing Wells Fargo Bank alleging she was fired for refusing to participate in an alleged scheme similar to the bank’s widespread account scam that led to millions of dollars in federal fines.
Melinda Bini, a former assistant vice president and regional private banker at the Highland Park bank’s branch, says in a recent lawsuit that supervisors instructed her to manipulate accounts and sell banking products or investments that were not the customers’ best interest or without their knowledge.
The lawsuit, filed in Middlesex County Superior Court on April 5, names Wells Fargo and three local bank supervisors.
Good for her…she will prevail. Just wait until the other shoe drops because Chase, Bank of America, Capital One Bank and others do THE EXACT SAME THING. Many good people lost their livelihood because of excessive corporate greed completely spun out of control. Complete scumbags. Bank local…save a job in your community.
Bank local? Like where?
