A woman was arrested after police said she used dozens of forged checks to steal nearly $50,000 from the Hialeah jewelry store where she worked for a month.<\/p>\n
Geydis Cabrera, 39, was arrested Monday on charges including third-degree grand theft, uttering a forged instrument, and organized fraud, an arrest report said.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the owner of Casa Joyero Miami, a jewelry store on West 49th Street, contacted police in February to report that Cabrera, a store sales representative from October 2025 through November 2025, had forged dozens of checks.<\/p>\n
The owner said Cabrera was compensated on a commission basis and had been issued a single check for $800, but when the owner reviewed bank records, she said she found around 90 additional checks that she didn’t authorize, the report said.<\/p>\n
Cabrera, the owner said, had forged the checks, made them payable to various people and negotiated them without her consent, the report said.<\/p>\n
The owner said 57 of the checks were issued under her name and investigators confirmed 57 checks, each in the amount of $815, were deposited into an account belonging to Cabrera, the report said.<\/p>\n
The total verified loss to the store was $46,455.<\/p>\n
