A Kitchener woman has been charged after Guelph Police said more than $95,000 was taken from a social committee at a Guelph business.
Members of the committee contacted police back in November 2023 to report the loss. Investigators discovered more than 50 e-transfers had been sent from the social committee’s bank account to the treasurer’s personal email over a 16-month period.
The woman no longer works for the company.
On Monday police arrested a 33-year-old woman and charged her with fraud over $5,000.
