Wells Fargo Customers’ Data Exposed, Used for Fraud in ‘Preventable Hack’, Alleges New Class Action Lawsuit

Wells Fargo is facing a class action lawsuit over a recent data breach that exposed thousands of customers' personally identifiable information. The lead plaintiff alleges that the bank's lax security measures allowed unauthorized actors to access sensitive data such as names, addresses, social security numbers, and bank account numbers. The lawsuit claims that this breach has caused financial turmoil, fear, anxiety, and has put the plaintiffs at an increased risk of identity theft and fraud. The complaint includes over 100 class members seeking injunctive and equitable relief for the compromised data and any resulting fraud. Wells Fargo has not publicly commented on the breach.
