Final answer:

John Stumpf quit as CEO of Wells Fargo after the bank was involved in a scandal of enrolling customers in unnecessary auto insurance and fraudulently creating bank accounts without client consent.

The correct answer to the question is B. Wells Fargo.

John Stumpf resigned as CEO of Wells Fargo after the bank was involved in a scandal where they enrolled customers in unnecessary auto insurance and fraudulently created bank accounts without client consent. These actions violated laws and regulations, causing financial harm to many customers.
