A Guelph woman faces charges after allegedly defrauding her employer of more than $100,000.
On Thursday morning, members of the Guelph Police Service Fraud Unit, General Investigations Unit and Intelligence Unit arrested the person in the downtown area.
The arrest follows an eight-month investigation which began in June 2021 where it is alleged this woman defrauded her employer of more than $100,000 and then attempted to conceal her actions by laundering the proceeds of the crime through purchases, transfers, and payments onto the accused’s personal accounts.
A 47-year-old Guelph woman is charged with fraud over $5,000 and laundering proceeds of crime. She will appear in a Guelph court April 29.
