Wentzville woman indicted on check fraud charges

A Wentzville woman is charged with altering customer payment checks and depositing the money in her personal accounts. According to an indictment, Tameka Bennett-Quinn was employed as a supervisor with GC Services in St. Charles County from 1999 to November 2009. GC Services is a contractor for MCI/Verizon to process customer payments. As part of her job, Bennett-Quinn collected these customer checks and distributed them to her subordinates for processing and routing to the appropriate bank. The indictment alleges that between May and November 2009, Bennett-Quinn began stealing customer checks, altering them and depositing the altered checks into her own bank accounts. She would alter the name of the intended payee so that the checks would appear to have been made payable to her. Posted in: Check Fraud
