Corinne A. Perrone
AWC/2010024718001
Perrone instructed a bank teller under her supervision, while acting as a bank branch manager, to process a withdrawal of $2,500 from her personal savings account, knowing the account had insufficient funds to cover the withdrawal, but misrepresented to the teller that the account belonged to one of her customers. When the teller discovered that the account had a $5 balance, Perrone falsely claimed that the customer would be making a deposit into the account in the near future, and Perrone performed an override on the account. The teller processed the transaction and gave Perrone $2,500 in cash.

Perrone forged a relative’s name on a signature card, opened a checking account in her relative’s name at another bank branch, traveled to another bank branch and instructed a bank teller, whom she formerly supervised, to process a withdrawal of $6,500 from that account, without her relative’s knowledge or authorization. Perrone knew the account had insufficient funds to cover the withdrawal but misrepresented to the teller that the account belonged to one of her customers. When the teller discovered that the account had a $25 balance, Perrone falsely advised him that she had just completed a wire transfer deposit into the account for the customer and that it would take a few minutes to appear on the system. After the teller processed the $6,500 withdrawal, Perrone directed him to give her $2,500 in cash and to deposit the remaining $4,000 into a checking account her relative legitimately owned.
