If one thing or somebody is being nefarious at Schwab, Schwab already is aware of my WF account numbers. However so does the IRS, SS, and anybody that I ship a examine to.
May one thing nefarious occur? Sure.

So does the login to the account. There is no such thing as a distinction.
If a login had been the one methodology, I most likely would use it after which change the password. The establishment the place the hyperlink is created desires the login or micro-deposits earlier than they’re prepared to take the legal responsibility related to an ACH pull.
This has nothing to do with belief of the group the place the hyperlink is being created. If I did not belief the group the place I had been making a hyperlink to a checking account, I might not do enterprise with them in any respect.
