Sex workers took to Twitter to slam Wells Fargo for inexplicably terminating their bank accounts. An adult performer who is also the president of the Adult Performance Artists’ Guild (APAG) said in a tearful Twitter video: “I don’t bounce checks, I’ve never done anything bad with my bank account, I don’t have fraud alerts or do chargebacks.” She read a letter that she received from Wells Fargo informing her that after a 30-year banking relationship, her account would be discontinued.
“A bank that I’ve done business with for 30 years decided that I’m not worthy of a relationship with them,” she said, adding: “How am I supposed to pay my bills? How am I supposed to get paid?” In the letter, the bank stated that it “performs ongoing reviews of its account relationships in connection with the Bank’s responsibilities to manage risks in its banking operations.” Many other high-profile sex workers—including a married couple who jointly run the Las Vegas-based pornographic production company YummyGirl Studios—also told Rolling Stone magazine that they, too, were informed by Wells Fargo that their account would be decommissioned.
