Lyreco lass loses bet on stolen office supplies

Customer care advisor gets careless over gambling debts.
An employee of Lyreco UK has been charged with stealing around $8000 worth of office supplies to pay off gambling debts.
Georgia Wade, aged 29, worked for Lyreco in Donnington Wood, Telford, as a customer care advisor and used the firm’s customer complaints system to send herself free supplies.
When customers would complain that their stock had not arrived or was damaged, the company would send free items so their clients were satisfied.
Wade used the system to redirect supplies to her home address.
