Fairfield Greenwich Group, the hedge fund that steered $7 billion to Bernard Madoff, faces new claims of fraud by investors who previously alleged negligence against co-founders Walter Noel, Jeffrey Tucker and Andres Piedrahita.

The class action suit, first filed in January in Manhattan federal court, was amended April 24 to include claims that the three co-founders and the firm acted so recklessly in placing client money with Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC that their actions constituted fraud.

....Other investors continue to use the courts to stake claims,notably one lawsuit in the past week by an investor againstMadoff's banker JP Morgan Chase (JPM.N), which the investoraccuses of knowing that the billions it held in Madoff moneywas part of a fraud.

The bank denied the allegations that if it had shut down the Madoff accounts in September, when it withdrew its own money out of a Madoff "feeder fund" run by Fairfield Greenwich Group, the $12.8 million of Florida plaintiff MLSMK Investments
Co would not have been lost.

Fairfield has also been sued by investors for fraud and
