I'd say with all the slamming and libel, you might want to watch out for some more persecution ... and if they call up your fantasies from here, the judge will laugh in your face.

... a florida court has convicted td bank of conspiring with a lawyer to commit mass theft amounting to over a billion dollars. story HERE ...

... td is one of the banks that the harper government has openly bragged about being the best in the world. sounds pretty corrupt to me ...

Check further, it smell like a bit of bullsh&t.

It would seem to me to be the employees who participated in the scheme that should
be held accountable not the entire bank. That makes no sense at all. I don't like TD
never did but this is a case that they should not be paying for the sins of others.
The problem is the US is a sue me happy nation and the judges and the lawyers and
the juries all enjoy the ride like some Gerry Springer show its a constant.

Gotta love it; Floridians where I'm wintering here in Florida are flocking to the TD bank BECAUSE they're fed up with B of A, Whackovia' Wells Fargo and other U.S. banks either charging them exorbitant fees, getting bail-outs or going broke. "They're just more trustworthy" is the mantra I'm hearing.

", Rothstein claimed he gave former TD Bank vice-president Frank Spinosa more than $50,000 to ignore obvious signs of illegal activity."

Right there, I know he's lying. A bank VP can't be bought off for $50 000. That's chump change. That's probably not even 2 months of a VP's pay...no one's risking fraud charges for that.

I don't think most guys doing 50 years are known for their propensity to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth! :lol:
