Nanny accused of forging employer’s checks for over $280,000
A Randolph woman who worked as a nanny is accused of forging checks from her employer to travel to the Bahamas, Aruba, Hawaii and other locations, and buy jewelry, including a diamond necklace and three Movado watches.
In all, Stephanie Fox, 30, allegedly wrote 65 checks fraudulent checks totaling $281,917, according to the FBI. She was arrested Wednesday and charged with three counts of bank fraud.
Fox worked as a nanny for the family from February 2013 until August 2015 when her employers discovered fraudulent checks had been written from their bank account, authorities said. She allegedly destroyed the bank statements when they arrived at her employer’s home, allowing the fraud to go unnoticed for over a year.
Fox was arraigned in U.S. Boston District Court on Wednesday.
