She embezzled millions and bought shoes
As, that today is a women's holiday – there will be a curiosity about one “enterprising” representative of the fair sex.
Sometimes it's really hard for a woman to resist the urge to buy new shoes. 51-the summer accountant in California knows this. Her love of high heels and boots cost the company almost 10 million dollars and forced the dismissal of workers, and the police to arrest the fraud. Annette Yeomans just loves shoes. The company's authorities and the American police, however, do not share her passion and the 51-year-old was imprisoned. Yeomans in the years 2001-2007 she was responsible for the finances of Quality Woodworks, Inc., companies in the Californian city of San Marcos, producing luxury furniture. It was then that she embezzled. All in all, she let it go 9,9 million dollars from the company's cash register. The lavish shoe woman spent at least 240 thousand. arr. Next 300 thousands of clothes cost famous designers. In the accounting closet, it also arrived 160 handbags, each with value 2 thousand dollars. In addition, Yeomans financed the conversion of the bedroom into a large wardrobe with shoes from the company's money, crystal chandelier and 32 inch plasma TV. Yeomans could easily transfer money to her account every week 25 thousand. dollars, because the company's management never hired an external auditor, to audit the books of account and had complete trust in the chief accountant – explains Sergeant Mark Varnau. But the financial losses had an impact on the company's condition – it was necessary to restructure and dismiss some employees.
The investigation was not initiated until February 2008 year, when American Express notified Quality Woodworks, that their accountant had used a company check, to cover your expenses with your private credit card. The woman was dismissed from her job. The police finally arrested the fraudster on Friday, and its fate will be decided by the court.
