Wells Fargo fired more than a dozen workers last month after allegations that the employees were faking work activity on their computers.
The bank terminated the workers after investigating claims of "simulation of keyboard activity creating impression of active work," according to a filing cited by Bloomberg News, which earlier reported the firings.
