Call me old-fashioned, but if a car kills people at ten times the rate of other cars,
the company covers up the data,
and the CEO lies to the public and says the cars are safer…

I think that CEO should go to jail on fraud charges.

If you are a victim of fraud you'll be SOL.

Best advice; close your account and move conventional bank elsewhere.

I just got emails that sure looked like official messages from my bank saying I'd added a Zelle recipient and sent him a bunch of money.

Of course I didn't click on any of the links; I just went to my bank's website and checked my accounts, and everything is fine. Also: The Zelle messages referenced an account ending in four digits which match none of my bank accounts.

So a warning that fake messages like this are circulating.

Now the New York State Court of Appeals has ordered the #fraud trial against #Trump to proceed, starting Monday, some observations about the terrific opinion the trial judge, Arthur Engoron, handed down earlier this week. Full text of opinion is at https://int.nyt.com/data/documenttools/trump-judges-ruling/ce6de7d636227e1b/full.pdf. Law has long had to grapple with falsehood , deceit, and gross inaccuracy of all kinds. Deployed by able jurists, it is well up to the task of dealing with Trump tactics in a way that other fields are not. 1/ #LawFedi

Please ignore the man behind the curtain claiming "Trump is about to get $3 billion richer after deal is approved to take his company public."

"SEC filings indicate Trump Media’s revenue amounted to just $1.1 million during the third quarter. The company posted a loss of $26 million that quarter."

"Not only that, but Truth Social appears to be shrinking. The number of Truth Social’s US monthly active users on iOS and Android is down 39% year-over-year."

As soon as the 6-month lock-up period is done and founders can finally cash out their shares, there will be a race to the exits.

Cigna, a US health insurance provider, is being sued for the second time this year for using automated intelligence to deny medical care claims so they don't have to pay for them.

“Cigna’s algorithmic review process trades patient care for profit, allowing the provider to eliminate the cost of necessary review by doctors and qualified professionals and instead rely on impersonal, illegal review by an almost completely automated algorithm.”

What is Cigna's defense?
They claim that because the review takes place after patients have received treatment, it does not result in any denials of care.

No one said you denied care, Cigna. You denied PAYMENT FOR CARE.

Hey Cigna, maybe you need to be reminded that the service you sell is PAYING FOR CARE.

Things got off to a rocky start at 's . Trump lawyer went on a rant about how the denied Trump a trial, and how unfair it is. Judge had to interrupt her to explain that the reason why there's no jury is that she herself forgot to submit the appropriate request for one. I'd call this , but that would be an insult to amateurs.

Isn't it … odd … that Trump just "happened" to meet an adoring devotee at Chick-Fil-A in Atlanta, a Black woman who hugged him, proving that Black people are just head over heels in love with Trump –

And she turns out to be an employee of the Georgia GOP?

All staged to create viral videos and all deeply insulting to African American voters, with the implication that they can be easily deceived and manipulated.

The avoidance, evasion & non-collection of is where the drain from the 'public purse' is much more notable.

What might be done?
a. Simplfy the system to remove opportunities to game the system;
b. Increase investment in HMRC enforcement capabilities...
