AVON, NY — A 31-year-old woman from Avon is facing multiple felony and misdemeanor charges after allegedly stealing bank account information from several individuals, according to the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office.
Kelly Cole was arrested on April 1 following a fraud investigation that began in March. Authorities say Cole obtained sensitive banking details from multiple victims and used the information to withdraw money from their accounts.
She has been charged with two counts of second-degree identity theft, second-degree scheme to defraud, and three counts of petit larceny.
Following her arrest, Cole was processed at the Livingston County Jail and released on her own recognizance, as the charges fall under offenses not subject to bail under New York State’s Justice Reform Act.
The Avon Police Department assisted in the investigation.
