Americas Watchdog's Wall Street Fraud Watchdog is demanding action on the part of state attorney generals whose citizens were duped with a Wall Street cash equivalent scheme called action rate securities, aka ARS, ARPS, SLARS. etc. According to the group, "At least 145,000 US citizens were lied to, in this $330 billion dollar con job, and we want action from all state attorney generals. At the top of our list is Wells Fargo Bank for not refunding the money of their auction rate securities clients. Bank of America, Citi Bank, Wachovia which is now owned by Wells Fargo have all settled. Why haven't the attorney generals of New York, Massachusetts & Missouri done anything about the Wells Fargo auction rate securities clients?"
