“This lawsuit is intended to provide all those being victimized by
this massive criminal enterprise the opportunity to come together to
gather the data we need to fix the problem at a systems level,” Mr.
Praed said.

Banks, however, may well fight the subpoenas of Mr. Praed.

A number of laws protect the confidentiality of bank customers.
Moreover, the banking industry has historically avoided much
discussion about fraud cases. Banks argue they do not want to give
away the techniques used by criminals or those meant to thwart them.
They also want to preserve the confidence of their customers.
