Good evening. A claim today by isis that it had a hand in the shooting attack on an antiislamist gathering in texas sunday has ratcheted up concerns about isis in this country, and its potential reach. It is the first time Islamic State has tried to claim credit for an attack on american soil. The white house today labeled it an attempted terrorist act, but it dismissed the isis claim itself. It may, however, be a fine distinction, as there are indication the shooters who were both killed were inspired by isis to go on the attack. We have two reports, beginning with our justice correspondent, pete williams. Reporter in radio and internet messages isis claimed the two gunmen from phoenix, nadir soofi and Elton Simpson were soldiers of the caliphate, or Islamic State, and that worse things are coming. U. S. Officials call it an attempt to claim credit and say theres nothing to show isis actually planned or directed the plot. They say simpson used several social media accounts and expressed his support for isis tweeting may allah accept us as new england gentleman head dean before the two men started firing in texas. Officials say the latest plat is part of an alarming new trend with isis shifting away from propaganda aimed at a mass audience and instead calling for action directly on social media. One official said its like someone repeatedly tapping you on the shoulder asking when are you going to do something . It is even more powerful now, with so many westerners in isis contacting friends back home. They are trying to you know egg somebody on potentially doing an attack back in their homeland for those that are still back in the home. Reporter investigators say several thousand people in the u. S. Trade messages on isis social media, a number impossible to track individually. And trying to shut down every isis social media account is hopeless. The answer many say is more people putting out an opposing message online. I believe a counterideology or counternarrative to the isis radical ideology could be successful but it has to be grassroots. Reporter investigators have yet to determine when the attack plan was formed. They say simpsons social media postings did attract attention from police and the fbi last month, but they say he was never explicit about any attack plans and was not under constant surveillance. Pete williams nbc news boston. Reporter im Miguel Almaguer in phoenix at the apartment of Elton Simpson and nadir soofi, where federal investigators have been searching for clues. The police and Homeland Security and fbi, we knew something was serious going on. Reporter soofis family is looking for answers, too. He was born in the u. S. A father to a young son. Entered my mind that anybody i knew would even do anything like that much less someone in the family. Reporter he spent time in pakistan as a child. Classmates tell nbc news he was popular and used to be called goofy because of his laid back attitude. Said to be a heartthrob soofi starred in the play bye bye birdie. Friends say he came from a privileged family but became more isolated in recent years. He was a devout muslim like Elton Simpson. The president of the mosque simpson attended regularly until about four years ago. A good demeanor. Very good attitude. Always a smile on his face. Reporter simpson caught the fbis attention nearly a decade ago. In 2010 he was investigated for planning to join a terror group in somalia, but he was convicted of lying to a federal agent and placed on probation. He just seemed very calm and quiet and, um i really had believed that the charges against him were trumped up. Reporter in a statement, simpsons family says they are struggling to understand how he could become radicalized writing, we are sure many people in the country are curious to know if we had any idea of eltons plan. To that we say without question we did not. Neighbors say the two men lived in the apartment complex behind me together for years. Law enforcement sources say the guns used in sundays shooting were purchased legally. Lester . Miguel almaguer tonight, thank you. In baltimore today, where emotions are still raw over the death of freddie gray and the violence that followed new attorney general Loretta Lynch made her first public official trip since assuming office last week. She met with grays Family Community leaders and police days after six officers were charged in connection to grays death. An attorney for one of those officers meantime filed a motion claiming the knife gray allegedly had on him the time of his arrest was illegal, despite prosecutors claim to the contrary. One of the nations biggest banks is under fire tonight. Wells fargo accused of committing fraud against its own customers. Employees allegedly opening accounts that customers never asked for, then charging them fees and damaging their credit. Nbcs Anne Thompson has this report. Reporter a bank is a place to put your money and trust. Franklin on says what he got in return at wells fargo is frustration. I only needed for my businesses two accounts and they opened over 15 accounts for me. Reporter many accounts on said were opened without his approval earning fees for the bank and endless headaches for this los angeles Small Business owner. They opened personal accounts checking accounts for me then savings accounts on top of those, then it is just oh man, it was a mess. Reporter these highpressure tactics to meet sales quotas are the heart of the lawsuit filed this week by the city of los angeles against wells fargo. Wells customers have been victimized by tactics designed to maintain high levels of sales of wells products. Reporter the suit accuses wells fargo of creating a virtual feegenerating machine, having family and friends open extra accounts using confidential customer information to open credit cards and other amounts and damaging customers credit reports when the unauthorized fees were not paid. Wells fargo is the nations fourth largest bank about more than 6100 branches across the country, just over 1,000 in california alone. Wells fargo says it will vigorously defend itself against the charges. Its culture, it says focused on the best interest of its customers and creating a supportive caring and ethical environment for its team members. For customers like franklin on experts say carefully monitor your Bank Activity off and online and Pay Attention to your credit report. Anne thompson nbc news new york.

Scholls massaging gel insoles, im a believer tonight, we are taking a closer look at something that happened over the weekend that may prove to be one of those critical moments when technology suddenly up ends the world as we know it in this case, the world of entertainment and sports. The event was the richest boxing match of all time in las vegas which millions of people paid big money to watch on tv, but it turns to you the a lot of people saw it for free thanks to new technology that is raising a whole host of concerns. Nbcs tom costello takes a look. Reporter if the may weather pacquiao match didnt quite live up to its billing, it may have touched off a different fight of the century in cyberspace. While payperview customers paid 100 each to view the fight, at least 66 people live stream it had over periscope, thousands, perhaps more to watch illegally for free. The ceo of twitter, per scopes parent company, declared per scope was the real win. At any moment per scope offers a support gas board of live feeds to choose from public and private moments. A concert in london, a family at a petting zoo, a man playing piano at home. From the mundane to the scandalous it is now possible to live stream to a global audience but that opens up a world of privacy and legal issues.
