Wells Fargo, one of the nation’s largest banks, has admitted to opening 3.5 million unauthorized accounts on behalf of its customers.  Wells Fargo employees faced intense pressure to “cross-sell” customers new products and had mandatory sales goals to meet.  The news of the unauthorized accounts came not from regulators but from an investigation conducted by the Los Angeles Times in 2013.  Only after the Times broke the story did the L.A. city attorney launch an investigation.  The city attorney sued Wells Fargo in 2015.  Federal regulators did not bring charges until later.  In late 2017, CFPB settled with Wells Fargo for a $100 million fine, although the CFPB may have been able to fine Wells Fargo $5,000 for each unauthorized account.
