A US financial regulator said a banker withdrew large sums of money from a senior citizen’s account without the customer’s consent.
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) he says Marissa Murillo made the mistake for two years while working as a banker at the Chicago branch of the Bank of Montreal.
“During the period of January 2023 to November 2024, the Respondent made several illegal withdrawals from the account of an elderly customer for his own use and the use of his family members.
As a result of Respondent’s misconduct, the Bank lost $164,918.”
As a result of Mr. Murillo’s actions, the OCC says it is barring the former Montreal banker from participating “in any way” in insured banks and other financial institutions managed by state-owned banks for an unspecified period of time.
“As a result of the foregoing, the Respondent violated the law, resulting in the Respondent’s financial gain to the Bank, and dishonesty.”
Murillo has accepted the restraining order without denying or admitting any wrongdoing.
