A Riverview woman has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for stealing more than $400,000 from a senior citizen residential community. According to court documents, 49-year-old Victoria Zerillo worked as the general manager of a nonprofit that provided HVAC, appliance, and plumbing repair services to senior citizens.
From December 2015 to November 2022, Zerillo and others conspired to commit wire fraud and embezzled $410,963.78 from the nonprofit by creating false and fraudulent bank statements and destroying records. Zerillo spent the money on luxury vacations and other personal expenses.
At the sentencing, one of the victims said Zerillo’s embezzlement significantly harmed them financially. If you or someone you know is a victim of financial fraud, call 833-FRAUD-11.
