In the last two months of her employment, the 28-year-old stole money from four customers, with the thefts only being discovered when one of them queried receiving a letter about money being withdrawn from a dormant account.

TSB Bank teller stole $28,000 from customers to feed her gambling addiction

How far do people go to feed a gambling addiction?

In this story we have a young bank teller, 28 years old lady, who stole 28,000$ from four different elders who were suffering from health and cognitive problems. Her goal was to fuel a gambling addiction, as presented by the defense at the court.

Families must be attentive to their elders when going to the bank and dealing with money in general. Scammers and thieves are everywhere and always ready to take advantage of the vulnerability of such individuals at an advanced age.

I think there is more of this kind of a bank teller in other banks doing the same thing as this teller on the story does. The teller might have noticed that most of the elderly people that are visiting the bank have some sights issues that's why should would have the mind to do this things. What the gambler did is part of theft and the court should judge it like that.

Anything that involves unauthorized used of funds or simply stealing then it would really be that something punishable. This is why it would really be that always having that possibility on having
these kind of instances that a certain person would be committing out on stealing specially when they are that become gambling addicts and just like been said that the current position of a bank teller
would really be having that advantage because they are really that able to know on how to lure up those senior citizens for them to be getting fooled or been that decieved about some certain
financial transactions on which it could really be leading up by the use of those funds specially into a bank teller on which they could actually be able to do things such as this.
It would really be just that right that she should really be imprisoned.

If I am not mistaken, the bank teller should be the ones to protect their costumers money instead of stealing them to satisfy her gamble urge. And the worse part is that she also lost the money and there is no other way that she could be able to get another money to pay back the money that she stole and Gambled with.
