A former Massachusetts bank employee pleaded guilty to stealing over $180,000 from the financial institution, federal officials announced Thursday, exploiting a rare vulnerability in the airtight world of bank security.
Derek Aut - a former sandwich maker at a beloved sub shop in Revere - pleaded guilty in federal court to embezzling funds while working as a teller at a bank in Boston, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. His theft involved forging bank customers’ signatures on withdrawal slips and moving money between accounts to cover his tracks, according to prosecutors.
