NY Payroll Company Vanishes With $35 Million

This communique came after employees at companies that depend on MyPayrollHR to receive direct deposits of their bi-weekly payroll payments discovered their bank accounts were instead debited for the amounts they would normally expect to accrue in a given pay period.

To make matters worse, many of those employees found their accounts had been dinged for two payroll periods — a month’s worth of wages —leaving their bank accounts dangerously in the red.

The remainder of this post is a deep-dive into what we know so far about what transpired, and how such an occurrence might be prevented in the future for other payroll processing firms.

    Aren't we the experts in technology? Perhaps, we can direct the bots where they should.

    Another and perhaps an easier approach is to make them kill each other. Election interference, email leaks, leaks who leaked them and watch them fight. It is even exiting and enjoyable.
