Banks deny ATM fraud claims despite customer evidence proving they were elsewhere
A Wells Fargo customer had their account settings changed by a fraudster to enable overdraft, then funds were drained through ATM withdrawals. The bank denied fraud claims twice based on the absence of PIN errors, refusing to check ATM camera footage that would confirm the account holder was at home at the time. Banks use PIN-error absence as a blanket fraud denial justification, ignoring available exculpatory evidence.
