IN: Woman given probation for role in ID theft scheme

Posted on July 25, 2015 by Dissent

Following up on a previously noted insider breach in the financial sector…

NWI reports:

A woman was sentenced Thursday to five years on probation and ordered to pay $47,449 in restitution to Fifth Third Bank for an identity theft scam, U.S. District Court records show.

Kathryn Jackson was employed as a lead customer service representative from October 2010 to January 2011 at a Fifth Third Bank facility in Chicago. During that time, she unlawfully accessed bank clients’ accounts and provided their names and other information to another individual without the clients’ knowledge.

Read more on NWI. She seems to have gotten off pretty lightly. Many of the court filings related to her case are restricted access, so it’s hard to know why.
