Remember last week when the news broke about Wells Fargo firing 5,300 employees who were part of a scam to rip off innocent customers for millions? Well, we have an update! The exec from Wells Fargo, Carrie Tolstedt, who was responsible for the “department” that opened more than two million unauthorized accounts gets to walk away at the end of the year with $125million.
