A Camden County woman is facing two-decades in prison for embezzling millions of dollars from a company where she was the senior accountant, accounting manager and senior financial shared services manager, announced U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger on Friday.

An investigation revealed that 49-year old Jennifer Vandever of Atco worked for the company between 2011 and 2018, and during that time, she was a supervisor of the accounting department.

She allegedly would charge large amounts of personal expenses for herself and her family on company corporate credit cards and on a department issued card.

Vandever would then hide that fact she used the corporate credit cards from the company while also directing payment of those personal expenses, from corporate funds, while her employer knew nothing of the matter.

In all, she hauled in $3-million through her scheme.

Between 2015 and 2018, she also tried to evade $514,801 in federal income taxes on $1.49-million of unreported embezzled taxable income.
