Bank of America Anonymous Emails Released
A hacker group called Anonymous released a cache of emails obtained from someone said to be a former Bank of America employee.
The group alleges that the emails, dating from November 2010, detail improper lending practices at the bank, an allegation the bank denies. The leak comes as consumer groups have accused major US lenders of foreclosing on many homes without having proper documentation in place.
The emails detail correspondence between employees of Balboa Insurance, a Bank of America insurance unit, in which they appear to be discussing the removal of details from documents in loan files.
…A representative of Anonymous told Reuters the documents relate to the issue of whether Bank of America has improperly foreclosed on homes.
