Arrangements are being made by the Fraud Squad detectives to begin questioning the NCB employee who was on Friday arrested in connection with the multi-million-dollar fraud saga at the Ocho Rios branch tomorrow.
The 35-year-old wealth advisor allegedly defrauded US$30,000 from a customer’s account.
The attorney for the accused Bert Samuels has indicated that charges are likely to be filed against his client.
Further reports also highlighted that between July and October of 2022, the NCB employee forged a customer’s signature on a debt instrument and deducted funds from his account.
The accused later redirected the proceeds to her account as well as the accounts of others.
Investigators have also outlined that the amount of money involved in the fraud scheme could increase as an audit is being conducted by NCB.
