PNC Bank Scandal: Cashier Steals $80,000 and Flees Law!
A serious embezzlement case rocks PNC Bank in Troy, Michigan. Rhodesia Jones, a former teller at the bank, is facing serious charges after being accused of taking over $80,000 from customer accounts. How dailyhodl.com reports, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced that the 25-year-old has been charged with embezzlement from financial institutions and two counts of tax violations.
Jones was employed at PNC Bank from June 2023 to May 2024 and is alleged to have withdrawn the funds from customer accounts without authorization. In addition, she is accused of failing to report these amounts on her income tax returns. She was arraigned in 52-4 District Court on Oct. 16 and given a $50,000 bond.
More fraud cases
The charges against Jones are not the only incident involving the bank. Another former cashier, Jahmaira Farrell, was also arrested. She is suspected of plundering the account of a St. Croix customer, Lennox Cato. Farrell is accused of forging Cato's signature to close a time deposit account and write a $100,000 check to an accomplice.
In addition to these incidents, there was another scandal in May. Mountee Brown, 27, pleaded guilty to bank fraud and aggravated identity theft. He was involved in a scheme in which $255,000 was stolen from customers of a bank in Clinton, Maryland. This shows a worrying pattern of fraud in the banking sector, affecting not only employees but also customers.
