    Original suit from the CFPB claimed that bank customers have lost over $870 million throughout the network's seven years of operation due to lack of consumer safeguards.  —  www.cnbc.com/2025/03/04/c...

    Another day, another slate of corporate pardons. The administration's decision to drop the Zelle case and a myriad of others is a gift to some of the worst corporate wrongdoers in the financial industry and a gut punch to the millions of Americans they harmed.

    Zelle Network banks Bank of America, JPMorgan, and Wells Fargo were already benefiting from the pause in CFPB enforcement, as documented in @Public_Citizen corporate enforcement tracker. Again and again, these pauses are precursors to Trump agencies dropping cases altogether. [im…

    Got scammed on Zelle? Don't expect help. The Trump administration just dropped a lawsuit against the banks behind #Zelle—despite $870M lost to fraud. Instead of protecting you, they're giving Wall Street a free pass. https://accountable.us/...

    If progressives really cared about protecting business trade secrets and customer information, they'd oppose the CFPB's investigative dragnets. Their real concern is keeping the CFPB up and running as a political weapon they can use against business. https://www.wsj.com/...

    This is unusual. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has dropped its lawsuit filed in December against JPMorgan, $JJPM, Wells Fargo, $WFC, and Bank of America, $BAC, over their handling of the payment service Zelle. They were alleged to have failed to protect consumers
  • @consumerchoicec @consumerchoicec on x
    Today CFPB did the right thing and dropped its case against Zelle. We know there are mass scams and fraud online. But placing liability on payment rails, rather than punishing the bad actors, only harms consumers who rely on these services. A victory for consumer choice! [image]

    The CFPB was designed to protect consumers from financial abuse. Recently, the CFPB dropped its lawsuits against: - Capital One, for cheating depositors out of $2B+ in interest - Rocket Homes, for providing kickbacks to agents and brokers - Zelle, for reported widespread fraud, […

    CFPB drops its lawsuit against the companies that run Zelle. With prejudice, so they can't bring it again. https://www.courtlistener.com/ ...

    Last week, the Trump CFPB let Capital One off the hook for allegedly cheating Americans out of $2B in interest. Today, Zelle owners Wells Fargo, B of A, & JPMC got a dismissal in their case involving nearly $1B of alleged consumer fraud. Corporate pardon season in full swing.
