Feb. 9 A former financial analyst was charged with defrauding the North Texas Business Alliance (NTBA) out of more than $1.4 million in rebate funds, Acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Prerak Shah announced Monday.
A federal grand jury charged Tammy Walden Thomas, 60, with nine counts of wire fraud last week, the press release said. From March 2016 to October 2019, Thomas was a financial analyst for NTBA, a cooperative association of hundreds of North Texas convenience stores and gasoline station owners that negotiated discounts with multinational food and beverage companies on behalf of its members.
