Assistant U.S. Attorney MaryEllen Kresse, who is handling the case, stated that the defendant, who had over 15 years of experience in the banking industry, authorized a man she met online to send credit cards to her home even though she knew that the credit cards had been obtained by fraud and without the true account holder’s knowledge or authority. Between July 17, 2013 and Oct. 28, 2013, the defendant allowed thirty-one unauthorized access devices to be sent to her home and used nine of them to obtain or attempt to obtain things of value in excess of $20,000.
The plea is the result of an investigation by the United States Postal Inspection Service, Boston Division, under the direction of Inspector in Charge Shelly A. Binkowski.
Sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 12, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. before Judge Wolford.
