Wall St. perv Wey in clear
WALL STREET cad Benjamin Wey is completely in the clear.
A month after prosecutors abandoned their securities fraud case against Wey, financial regulators told a Manhattan federal judge Friday they're dropping their case against him too.
The Securities and Exchange Commission was investigating Wey for allegedly controlling the stock of Chinese companies he was bringing to the American market.
Wey’s lawyer David Siegal, said the dismissal "can only be described as a complete victory.”
A Manhattan Federal Court jury in June 2015 awarded Swedish stunner Hanna Bouveng $16 million in punitive damages and $2 million in compensatory damages against Wey, his company, New York Global Group, and a subsidiary. Bouveng claimed in a lawsuit that the frisky financier retaliated against her and defamed her because she thwarted his advances. CLOSE TO 4 million records containing Time Warner Cable subscribers’ personal information were accidentally leaked last month, an investigation has found.
Kromtech Security Center discovered data, with usernames, email addresses, and financial transaction information belonging to the company’s MyTWC app users, Gizmodo reported.
It's unclear how many customers’ information was contained in the 4 million files.
