A financial accountant for South African telco MTN is behind bars after being accused of stealing ZAR24mn (USD1.8mn) from her employer, reports ENCA.com. Ruth Moshabane was arrested at MTN’s headquarters in Fairland, Johannesburg, after her personal bank contacted MTN about a series of suspicious transfers into her account. It is alleged Moshabane repeatedly took money from MTN’s bank account between 16th July 2015 and 4th April 2017.
Moshabane’s LinkedIn profile says she worked at MTN for almost 14 years, and describes her as a “financial accountant and aspiring entrepreneur.” Who knew that she was talking about a criminal enterprise!
