Woman Claims Ex-Husband Stole $250,000
According to an incident report at the Oconee County Sheriff's Office, the woman thinks her accounts were accessed by fraud.
An Oconee County woman told deputies last week she believes her ex-husband forged several documents that allowed him to gain access to her assets. In particular, she accused the man of forging signatures that allowed him to access a will that had been left to her.
The woman said a cashier's check was obtained fraudulently from a local bank in the amount of $80,000 and in total $250,000 has been taken from the account.
The woman was advised of the warrant process and asked to update the Sheriff's Office with any further information.
