Is Your Spa Theft Proof?

Newbury Street, Boston MA spa owner is still owed some $18,000
Joyce Hampers is still owed some $18,000 from a former receptionist who swindled $25,000 from her Emerge Spa & Salon last year by issuing store credits to her personal credit cards and then tossing out the receipts.
A spa manager “caught her because the same credit card numbers were showing up over and over again,” said Hampers.
The woman was placed on probation and court-ordered to pay restitution at a rate of $1,000 a month, but last month she went back before a judge to get her monthly payments cut in half, court records show.
Hampers said she changed her credit card processing procedures and installed a password-protected System for issuing credits.
