Former Webster, New York teller faces embezzlement charges

A former bank teller from Wingdale, N.Y., appeared Monday in Bantam Superior Court on charges she stole $5,000 from a bank customer's account.

Margo Schneider, 31, of 8 White Road, Wingdale, was employed as a teller supervisor by Webster Bank at its Boardman Terrace branch at 53 Main St., New Milford, in the summer of 2007 when she forged withdrawal slips, police said.

An investigation was launched after a bank customer walked into the bank claiming she was missing $5,000 in funds. The funds were later restored to the account by the bank, according to a court affidavit.

Schneider has been charged with larceny by embezzlement. A warrant was prepared for her arrest in 2009, but her appearance was delayed because of extradition proceedings.
