NEW YORK<\/span>, The law firm of Squitieri & Fearon, LLP announces it is investigating a potential shareholder action against the Board of Directors and certain officers of  Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB) who were derelict in their duties in allowing employees to corruptly cross-sell services to Fifth Third’s existing account holders by signing them up for costly and unwanted additional services. <\/p>\n

Fifth Third’s officers and managers were rewarded with bonuses for such illegal cross-selling. This conduct appears to have started as early as 2008 and continued through at least 2016, despite the fact that by 2010 Fifth Third’s “whistleblower” line had logged numerous complaints and credible reports of corrupt practices.<\/p>\n
