Woman Stole 2K from Couple Helping Her Financially
White Deer, Pa. — A couple lost $2,000 after taking in a woman to help her get back on her feet financially. Milton State police said that 48 year old Justine Shawn Shilo, had been staying with the couple in White Deer Township in 2023 when an alleged theft occurred. The victim told police she opened a bank account for Shilo after she moved in but she was not listed as an authorized user on the account. Shilo allegedly gave the victim a Netspend prepaid card for $2,000 on Jan. 30, 2023 and asked her to deposit it into the account. Shortly after that, the two women had a falling out and Shilo withdrew her money from the account, and gave it to her in cash. Several days later, the victim discovered Netspend withdrew $2,000 out of her personal bank account. When police interviewed Shilo, she admitted she falsified a fraudulent use dispute with Netspend regarding the $2,000. Police said that Shilo had not made any attempts to pay the couple back and they filed a felony theft by deception charge and Shilo was located and arrested. She remains jailed in lieu of bail.
