Most of the money the Albertsons owner wired to fraudulent accounts was recovered, but grocer and vendors both claim it.
SuperValu, which bought most of the Albertsons supermarket chain last year, has fallen prey to an e-mail scam, sending about $10 million to fraudulent bank accounts, according to federal court filings.
The scam is detailed in a pair of forfeiture cases filed under seal earlier this year in U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho.
