LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) — A Central Pennsylvania nursing home lost more than $100,000 in an email hack, and investigators said they were able to trace the stolen funds back to two men.
Manheim Township police said in charging documents that 59-year-old Shawn Martin, of Colorado, and 36-year-old Sandro Dzigoshvili, of New York, scammed Trillium Place by Tandem Living Nursing Home out of $113,869.50.
The investigation began after the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer met with police on Dec. 17 to report fraudulent activity.

The nursing home, located along Harrisburg Pike in Manheim Township, was working with another company to have a boiler replaced and it became apparent that an email from the company was hacked, police said. Someone posed as an employee and added a fake email.
Police said the money was sent to a fraudulent company called JSM Properties in Parker, Colorado, which was later discovered to be owned by Martin when investigators searched the Colorado Department of State’s website.
Bank records also showed Martin was the owner of JSM Properties and there were large transfers from the company’s account to Martin’s personal one and Dzigoshvili’s account, charging documents said.
Dzigoshvili and Martin face felony charges of theft by deception, conspiracy and dealing in proceeds of unlawful activities.
