I am yet another victim of the Canopy (Wellfund) HSA scam. After fully researching HSA's back in 2005, I selected Wellfund, since I was told (and read) that the "bank" was FDIC insured (I'm an engineer that is employed at a large US company and (typically) thoroughly research companies prior to investing any significant amount of money - - - even more so when these funds are used for health-care related expenses).
I have close to ~$6k frozen, and when I first heard the news, thought for sure that the feds would be involved with ensuring that those accounts that are "FDIC insured" would be covered.
Unfortunately, I have no legal "bankrupty" knowledge/experience, and would appreciate any feedback relative to what legal actions are at my disposal (including any legal actions against the "criminals" that seem to have no conscience to steal money from citizens that save for health care costs).
I would also appreciate any detailed information relative to the contact information for those charged in this case.
Sincerely,
Ripped Off but Not Forgotten

care too much about this story. You can 'Google' this- RIP OFF REPORT GM CREDIT CARD SERVICES, and go to Betty's Ripoff Report about her credit card interest rate going from 10.99% to 32.44%, and then read the '1st Update' to her Ripoff Report that clearly states that the "COLLAPSE OF THE U.S. ECONOMY IS IN ITS INFANCY", correct?

Followup & correction

To follow up and correct my last post, the $6.1 million offer from the firm in Newport is for the Canopy intellectual property, not for all assets.
Yesterday (12/29/09), multiple documents were filed in the Chicago bankruptcy court by the Jenner law firm. Included among these were schedules stating that Canopy has roughly $19 million in assets (including $2.6 million cash) and $26 million in liabilities. Virtually all of the liabilities consist of HSA accounts - some 14,000 or so - worth about $25.4 million. Coventry Health Care appears to be the largest creditor, with about 13,700 accounts worth more than $17 million.
In addition to the $20 million in missing HSA funds, it appears that another $35 million of venture capital money is unaccounted for. Canopy raised $75 million in private placement(s) during July and August. About $40 million of that was used to repurchase common and preferred shares from existing shareholders (Blackburn, the Kashyap family, Frankel, and Granite Global). The remaining $35 million was supposed to be used for "working capital and other general corporate purposes". That's a whole big pot of money for working capital for this itty bitty company! I still think this deserves some attention from the media. Is anyone interested in representing the Wellfund account holders?

Dear Ripped Off - Latest info is that an unnamed "affiliate" of privately held TriZetto Group based in Newport Beach, CA (all straight-shooters down there, don't you know) has offered to pay $6.1 million to the Canopy bankruptcy trustee to acquire all of the assets and none of the liabilities of Canopy. If you haven't already been contacted by the Chicago law firm of Jenner & Block who is representing Canopy, you should contact them and make yourself known. Mr. Vincent Lazar, Esq. is lead counsel on the case. Court dates have been set in Chicago for the last week of January to finalize the sale. Nothing more has been heard from the SEC or from the FBI on what actions they are taking or contemplating, and the FDIC has been absolutely silent so far as I know. If you've read the other threads in this forum, you know that there is also a group on Facebook discussing the Canopy Financial situation, so there may be more information there.
