If you read the article, it said the security for the mall was shocked as well. It seems she would have gotten away with it if one of the other co-workers didn't notice a million-dollar transaction the 19-y/o failed to clear out.

It sounds like the company has a very poor transaction system that leaves opportunity to exploit it.

She got caught after taking a $25,000 trip to Hawaii, buying a Tesla, and a bunch of expensive accessories/clothes.

I'm sure eventually someone else would have said something at some point. All that money would raise flags somewhere down the line I feel, as the card company would notice a recent string of high-value spending.

That's what I assume would happen anyway. The thing is I could be wrong on that because the article doesn't mention anything like that.

So it's possible if she never forgot to clear the transaction the company might never have noticed.

I don't know what his source is, but if this were implemented then the US House would be something like 678 or 679.

The amount of the settlement should be disclosed. That's what brings change - the same financial pain that made the homeowners act will keep realtors and bankers in line. All this clucking about education and promises is bullshit.

She got caught because she forgot to clear out a $1 million order? Really? This is a jewlery store in the mall. Do they do that sort of business regularly? Is this not something that might require some sort of sign-off, ring some alarm bells?

It says that she stole >$500K over 3 days. She was able to buy a car and vacation, so there was some time between the fraud and getting caught.

> The scam should have sounded alarms, before an alert co-worker noticed a $1 million order that Foster had failed to clear out

Looks like the person also issued the credit to their own personal CC then turned around and bought a Tesla and other high priced items. If they woulda kept it in believable amounts, didn’t flash the money around, and kept it off their own personal cards they might have gotten away with it.

I worked in corporate IT at my companies HQ a while back. My office was right next to the head of internal legal or something like that. Basically his job was to deal with people charging personal expenses to their corporate CC; internal fraud stuff. I had water cooler talks with him in the hall and he would mention frequently it’s always the dumbest ones who do it and they always go all in. It’s never a few hundred here and there. It’s always absurd amounts of charges and always the most obvious indicators (like we as a chemical company don’t purchase from luxury clothing brands).

The original appraiser should lose their license. This is a profession that is supposed to abide by some ethics. How can this slap on the wrist prevent hundreds of other black families experiencing the same thing in that area?

The hypocrisy is deafening...

It's possible. I used a cc to pay for a cruise that was eventually refunded because of COVID. By that time I had paid off the card completely, so I just had a -$1300 balance (basically a credit to spend).

>Where the kid gets a check for a cool million and spends like 10 million worth? Classic motion picture film.

10 million? The kid bought a fucking castle to live in lol

I'm surprised they didn't give her an MBA.

This bitch earned that title simply from her actions. Anyone intentionally hurting another is a bitch in my opinion.

A 401(k) is not enough to retire on. Especially not when you're 60 or younger lmfao

And in Arizona, Republicans are trying to completely abolish the city councils of blue cities.

It seems they've decided on their next step on the road to ending democracy.

The proles must be miserable, or their masters aren’t getting enough from them.

>Not sure about “racist bitch.”

Yeah the words we should use for ANY racist are far far worse than just bitch.

edit: downvoted? go back to your KKK meeting loser

Just So I understand, some places you can return something you bought w/ cash or another card and they will refund it back to a different card? What if your cc has a 15K limit? How do you return a 20K purchase to 15k limit card? I was under the impression the article messed up, as apparently no one proof reads anymore, and meant to say debit card.
