Bank Leumi CEO Escalates Legal Battle, Accusing Meta of Profiting from Scam Ads
Bank Leumi, one of Israel's largest financial institutions, has intensified its public and legal campaign against tech giant Meta. The bank's CEO harshly criticized the company, alleging that it financially benefits from phishing advertisements designed to impersonate the bank and defraud everyday citizens. The conflict marks a significant escalation in the ongoing tension between traditional banking institutions and global social media platforms regarding cyber fraud liability. Bank Leumi is actively encouraging affected Israeli citizens to join its class action lawsuit against the parent company of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram.
