West Virginia Auditor Sues Banks
WEST VIRGINIA....
West Virginia's auditor, Glen Gainer, says the criminal case that wrapped upthis week targeting an international fraud scheme should help him recover around $1.5 million lost in a Kenya-based scam which resulted in wiring of West Virginia's funds to Kenya. Gainer has sued three banks that handled the transactions involved in the scam. His Lincoln County Circuit Court lawsuit was filed in March against Wachovia, SunTrust and TCF banks. The banks deny any wrongdoing.
