Yvette Newton, 54, of Shaw, was previously jailed for 16 months after admitting fraud
A 'devious' fraudster who swindled more than £55,000 the company she worked for has been ordered to pay back £63,000.
The court previously heard that between September 8, 2015, and 16 August, 2020, Newton spent a total of £55,309.23 from the company. During her time working for the contracting firm, where she was earning £33,000 a year, she transferred £17,485.70 to her own Santander bank account, as well as a further £11,539.49 to a Nationwide account, also in her name.
Prosecuting, Thomas Worsfold told the court that her actions were first flagged by her employers on August 21, 2020, when managing director Daniel and operations director wife noticed there were a number of "irregular payments made from the company's bank account to unexpected recipients, such as Nissan, North Face and Lansdowne Motors."
The court also heard how Newton used a company fuel card to pay for her and her husband's fuel and to make payments of a further £4,945.54 through a trade account called Trade UK Web Portal. In today’s hearing, also heard at Minshull Street Crown Court, Newton sat in the public gallery as Judge Angela Nield said: “I am satisfied by virtue of the offence with which you were sentenced for fraud by abuse of position that the requirements of the Proceeds of Crime Act apply to this case.
