A WOMAN has been convicted of fraud for paying £53.06 into her bank account.
Chloe Stoute-Fisher, 24, of Daniel Court, in Holme Wood, Bradford was sentenced for fraud by false representation, at Kirklees Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.
She was found guilty of the offence at the same court on July 3, having denied the charge at an earlier hearing.
Stoute-Fisher committed fraud when she paid £53.06 to her Vanquis Bank account from a woman's Halifax bank account between December 29, 2020 and January 1, 2021 at Mirfield, according to court records.
The 24-year-old received a 12-month community order for the offence.
She is required to complete 200 hours of unpaid work in that time.
Stoute-Fisher was also ordered to pay £732.06.
This includes £53.06 in compensation, a £480 fine, a surcharge of £114 to fund victim services, and costs of £85.
