Woman embezzled more than $129,000 from First National Bank, prosecutors say in Pittsburgh

A Spring Hill woman embezzled more than $129,000 from First National Bank while she was an assistant branch manager and head teller between 2008 and 2011, federal prosecutors say.
A federal grand jury on Tuesday indicted Diana Phillips, 39, on charges of bank embezzlement and making false entries in bank records. The indictment doesn't say what branch of the bank she worked at.
There was no listing for Phillips and no attorney listed for her in court records.


According to the indictment, Phillips was an assistant branch manager and head teller at First National Bank. Over a period of roughly three years, Phillips embezzled approximately $129,318.38 from the bank by processing fictitious general ledger transactions and making cash-in deposits into an account owned by a family member. The defendant then transferred money from the family member’s account into accounts controlled by her and/or her husband.
