This past Monday, porn star Teagan Presley arrived home in Las Vegas from yet another whirlwind strip club appearance tour and found a letter from her bank.
Chase was closing her account, which was listed under her legal name, as well as the account of her husband.
When Presley went to the bank in person to ask why, she was told its because shes considered high risk.
And then they told me that they canceled my husbands account too, because our social security numbers are linked, Presley told VICE News. They told him that it was because Im a notorious adult star. Which is funny, because Im kind of a goody-goody in the business, and Im not even doing porn anymore.
Operation Choke Point is asking banks to identify customers who may be breaking the law or simply doing something government officials dont like, Keating wrote. Banks must then choke off those customers access to financial services, shutting down their accounts.
Keating said the highly secretive operation was launched in early 2013. Thats when porn stars started to complain to the media that their bank accounts were being shut down without explanation.
