SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Empower CU is missing as much as $80,000 from member accounts and a temporary teller has been charged with helping steal the money. Investigators say Renee Gooden, 36, would get into people's accounts and figure out their passwords, then have a friend come to the credit union and identify themselves as that person, say the password and withdraw money. At least nine unidentified people are believed to have come to the credit union and withdrawn funds on behalf of Gooden, detectives said. Gooden is no longer working at the credit union.
