Woman, relative charged after transferring $3 million received in error

ST MARY, Jamaica — A woman and her relative have been charged after she allegedly received more than $3 million in error and transferred portions of the money to several individuals.

Forty-year-old Moneague Campbell and Orane Campbell, both of Salt-Cut Boscobel, St Mary, are facing charges of simple larceny, possession of criminal property and engaging in a transaction involving criminal property in relation to the incident.

According to the St Ann’s Bay police, the incident occurred between Friday, March 13 and Monday, March 16, 2026, when Moneague allegedly received more than $3 million in error.

Investigators reported that she subsequently transferred portions of the money to several individuals, including her relative, Orane.

She reportedly became unreachable following discussions with her bank, prompting a report to the police. Moneague was later featured in the Jamaica Constabulary Force’s Wanted Wednesday campaign.

Following investigations, Orane was arrested during a targeted operation, while Moneague surrendered to the police on Tuesday, October 27.

Both were subsequently charged after being interviewed by investigators.

Their court date is being finalised.
