What this pass recorded. Nothing confirmed this pass on data privacy. Fifth Third's more consequential consumer finding is regulatory: the CFPB brought an action concerning employees opening unauthorised accounts in customers' names to meet sales goals (filed March 2020; resolved by a stipulated judgment entered July 18, 2024 requiring a $15 million civil money penalty plus consumer redress) - the same category of conduct that produced the Wells Fargo scandal. That is a sales-incentive failure rather than a data one, and it is recorded here because it is the finding a consumer would actually want to know about this bank.
