🎙 Episode Show Notes / Description:
- Real-life example of a major bank being forced to repay victims of a Ponzi scheme.
- Even though banks aren’t the scammers, they can still be held accountable under certain conditions.
- If a bank failed to follow its own procedures or neglected basic fraud prevention practices, it could be considered liable.
- The core issue is third-party liability—when an institution indirectly enables fraud through negligence.
- It's crucial to investigate not just the scammer, but also other parties who may have failed to protect you.
- In many cases, the scammer is hard to find or the funds are already spent, making third-party recovery a practical path.
- This particular case involved a class-action lawsuit against Umpqua Bank for allowing scammers to exploit weak security measures.
- Victims united to seek recovery by holding the bank accountable for its role.
- Don't overlook third-party liability when seeking to recover stolen funds.
