NCUA bans 7 from future work in FIs
The NCUA in September issued five prohibition notices and two prohibition orders, which prohibit individuals previously associated with credit unions from any future participation in the affairs of a federally insured financial institution.
Violation of a prohibition order is a felony offense punishable by imprisonment and a fine of up to $1 million. The names and details from last month's prohibitions include the following:
- Richard Fortney, a former institution-affiliated party of Mid East Tennessee Community Credit Union in Decatur, Tenn., agreed and consented to the issuance of prohibition order and agreed to comply with all of its terms to settle and resolve the NCUA Board’s claims against him.
- Connie Marie Kent, a former employee of Topeka Post Office Credit Union (now 1st Kansas Credit Union) in Topeka, Kan., pleaded guilty to the charge of embezzlement.
- Jamelah Y. Martinez, a former employee of Suncoast Credit Union in Tampa, Fla., pleaded guilty to the charge of conspiracy to commit bank fraud.
- Jenifer M. Nelson, a former employee of Baker’s Federal Credit Union in Omaha, Neb., pleaded guilty to the charge of attempted theft.
- Teresa Ann Perkins, a former employee of Community United Federal Credit Union in Waycross, Ga., pleaded guilty to the charge of theft, embezzlement or misapplication of funds.
- Jasmine Marie Santos, a former institution-affiliated party of People’s Alliance Federal Credit Union in Hauppauge, N.Y., agreed and consented to the issuance of a prohibition order and agreed to comply with all of its terms to settle and resolve the NCUA Board’s claims against her.
- Devin S. Williams, a former employee of Suncoast Credit Union in Tampa, Fla., pleaded guilty to the charge of conspiracy to commit bank fraud.
NCUA enforcement orders are available via a searchable database online. Enforcement actions of federal banking agencies against other institutions or their affiliated parties may also be viewed via the administrative orders webpage.

As community-oriented organizations, credit unions more than most feel a responsibility for the well-being of their members, employees and volunteers. This webinar, Avoiding and Resolving Harassment Claims: A Primer for Board Members provides both an introduction to the subject for board members, as well as selected deep dives on particular issues of interest to credit union volunteer boards. Key Takeaways Learn to identify the hallmarks of a situation in which it is appropriate for the board to become involved, as opposed to permitting effective resolution through normal human resources procedures Recognize the breadth of current law governing harassment claims, including newly prominent protected categories, the nature and severity of conduct which may constitute harassment, and the fact that conduct that may not rise to the level of a state or federal law civil rights violation may still violate the credit union’s own internal policies, procedures, and ideals, and be subject to appropriate discipline and remedial action Discover appropriate oversight roles for board officers, committee members including supervisory committee members, and other Board members, particularly in the context of passing along a report or complaint of harassment or inappropriate conduct Register Now$295 Members | $395 Nonmembers (Additional $50 for USB)One registration gives your entire team access to the live webinar and on-demand recording until June 6, 2024.Go to the Online Training Center to access the webinar after purchase » Who Should Attend Board of director titles NCVEs and volunteer titles HR titles Education Credits NCVEs will receive 1.0 CEUs for participating in this webinar Web NAFCU digital@nafcu.org America/New_York public

Anyone that has been doing this for a while forms a network of trusted advisors and we all go to each other anytime we come across some new or complex case. [02:50] Scams have always been around but the emergence of AI has made them far more sophisticated than we have ever seen before. [05:55] Person-to-person payment apps like Zelle, Venmo, and CashApp are not protected like debit and credit cards. [08:30] Every single time that new technology comes out that makes our lives better, fraudsters will find a way to exploit it. The current state of cyber fraud points credit unions in a lose-lose situation. [20:04] By identifying the information at one credit union and getting it out to others they are getting ahead of these threats. [22:19] Fraud Fusion Centers are critical. Formalize it and make it happen. Web NAFCU digital@nafcu.org America/New_York public
