Creating cards for automated teller machines and forged documents, two private bankers who worked at JPMorgan Chase, Jonathan Francis and Dion Allison, and their accomplices withdrew about $400,000 from the accounts over two years, the New York Times reported today. The New York attorney general, Eric T. Schneiderman, warned in June that bank tellers and other employees have easy access to customer data, and had committed fraud using the data on multiple occasions. In this case, prosecutors for the Brooklyn district attorney’s office charged in an indictment, the bankers could not only gain access to but also issue ATM cards for the 15 accounts, without the account holder’s consent.
