DAVENPORT, Iowa — Jessica Kathryn Webb, 39, has been charged with defrauding three companies of over $218,000 through unauthorized credit card transactions, according to police reports.
Arrest affidavits detail that between June 2023 and April 2025, Webb made fraudulent purchases using credit cards issued by Cantrell’s Towing, Fred’s Towing, and Trashleys Disposal. The total fraudulent amount exceeded $218,673.
Webb faces several charges including:
One count of ongoing criminal activity, a Class B felony punishable by up to 25 years in prison
One count of forgery
One count of tampering with records
Three counts of first-degree theft
Four counts of identity theft
She was arrested Wednesday and released Thursday after posting a $250,000 cash-only bond.
Investigators say Webb used her own company-issued credit cards as well as cards issued to other employees to make personal purchases, send Venmo payments to family members, and take cash advances. The losses are estimated at $138,908 from Cantrell’s Towing, $64,879 from Fred’s Towing, and $14,885 from Trashleys Disposal.
Additionally, Webb used the credit card numbers of four co-workers to make unauthorized transactions totaling more than $27,000. She also altered and falsified credit card statements to hide her fraudulent activity.
Court records do not specify Webb’s exact role or tenure with the companies involved. Cantrell’s Towing, Fred’s Towing, and Trashleys Disposal either declined to comment or did not respond to inquiries.
Webb is a former employee of the Quad Cities Chamber of Commerce, where she left voluntarily in 2022—about a year before the fraud began, according to a spokesperson.
