An employee of Mohawk Industries (Calhoun, Ga.), Debora Busby, has been charged with 51 counts of financial transaction card fraud and 51 counts of identity fraud, according to a statement from the Calhoun Police Department.
“It is alleged that Busby had taken approximately $766,000.00 over a three-year span, and used the money to pay personal bills, take lavish vacations and purchase various items for personal use,” Police Captain Tony Pyle said in a statement.
A LinkedIn profile for Busby identifies her as the “ClearPay Commission and Rebates Specialist” at the company. She has worked for Mohawk Industries since 2000, according to the profile.
A spokesperson for Mohawk declined comment on the story.
The police department charged Busby after a four-month investigation. The investigation started when employees found discrepancies in a number of company accounts, according to the Times Free Press.
The police believe Busby acted alone.
