The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is probing the matter as well, because the American Express Centurion Bank, which issues Optima, filed incorrect documents with federal regulators as a result of the apparent cover-up.

The FDIC, which guarantees the nation's bank deposits, has had to pay out more than $24 billion during Seidman's tenure and is running low on reserves.
