Cash App users could get some cash sent to their bank accounts soon in compensation for a data breach, Ahjané Forbes reports.
In a settlement, the mobile payment service has been ordered to pay $15 million in damages. According to a class-action lawsuit, plaintiffs sued Cash App Investing and Block Inc. for the companies' "failure to exercise reasonable care in securing and safeguarding consumer information."
Here are the details.
Bank probe targets Zelle
Meanwhile, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is investigating major U.S. banks for their handling of customer funds on the peer-to-peer payments platform Zelle Network, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The probe focuses on JPMorgan, Bank of America and Wells Fargo, among other large banks. JPMorgan last week had disclosed in a filing that it was responding to regulators regarding Zelle and was considering whether to sue a U.S. consumer watchdog over the agency's inquiries.
Here's what drew regulators' attention.

Americans already lack retirement savings. A New York Life survey of 2,202 adults last month showed only 4 in 10 have a nest egg, even though 74% expect to retire at 64. That shortfall means many retirees may find their golden years tarnished by financial stress.
Here's the full report.
