A Wayne County woman is facing federal bank fraud charges. Federal prosecutors say 37-year-old Cortney Vogt from the Town of Ontario was re-arrested on new charges today.
Vogt pleaded guilty to bank fraud charges last week. The new charges say she allegedly defrauding her employer, ID Sign Systems. Prosecutors say she forged checks and inflated the company payroll deposits, then diverted that extra money into her account. She faked the books to make it appear the money was going to one of Sign Systems’ regular vendors.
The previous charges were for running a nearly-identical scheme on an earlier employer. Prosecutors say the full extent of her frauds hasn’t been determined yet.
Vogt was brought into court today (Wed) where her bail was revoked and she was sent to jail pending further court appearances.
