What Happened?
KeyBank recently filed a lawsuit against Interlogic Outsourcing, Inc., accusing the company and its owner and CEO, Najeeb Khan of “willful breaches of fraudulent conduct.” The accusations stem from a $122 Million wire transfer that was initiated by IOI, despite not having the funds to cover the transaction. The IOI payroll lawsuit has brought light to potential risks involved with outsourcing payroll and HR functions.
Who is Affected?
Interlogic Outsourcing, Inc. processes payroll for over 6,000 clients across the country. Since the IOI payroll lawsuit was announced, a few have publicly expressed concern over unpaid taxes, as well as undelivered payroll liabilities to employees. An email one client received from IOI explained that there has been “a temporary interruption in file processing” and that “Any funds provided to our banks for future payroll and related tax and benefit processing will be used for those purposes only.”
