Lieff Cabraser is investigating claims that Wells Fargo and its employees have signed up bank customers for unwanted and unauthorized life insurance policies (including “MyTerm” policies issued by Prudential), in some cases arranging for the monthly premiums for these insurance policies to be deducted from the customers’ bank accounts. These claims follow the well-publicized revelations, earlier this year, that Wells Fargo and its employees opened up more than 2 million bank accounts and credit cards without customer authorization.

According to published reports, an investigation of recorded calls to Prudential’s customer service lines has apparently revealed complaints from Wells Fargo customers about policies they did not recall buying.

Lieff Cabraser is a national law firm that represents consumers throughout the United States in fraud and deceptive practices lawsuits, including cases involving deceptive practices by banks and insurance companies.
