Atlanta Corporate Fraud Investigators Get Office Manager To Confess To $55,000 In Employee Theft

Atlanta based Loss Prevention Systems’  corporate fraud investigator gets confession from Office Manager stating she stole over $55,000 by issuing checks to phony vendors.

The Accounting Department of an Atlanta area company noticed an unusual increase in supply expenses from one of its branch locations. Upon reviewing the payables, we were contacted to investigate the cause of the sudden increase.

Our corporate fraud investigator found a total of 57 company checks made out to two fictitious vendors and deposited to a single account. The checks had been produced by a former Office Manager of the company.

The former manager was located and contacted, and agreed to an interview with our investigator. In the subsequent interview, the former manager admitted to the theft of over $55,000.00 over a period of five months.

She would make out the checks to her own bogus company, then change the payee in the accounting system to a legitimate vendor, making it appear that a true invoice had been paid.

The former employee signed a statement admitting guilt and agreeing to pay the money back.

With this information and the checks as evidence, he employer took a warrant for the arrest of the former manager, charging her with Grand Larceny.
