AN OFFICE worker from Hereford conned her employer out of over £10,000, a court heard.
Leonie Seavor, of Church Croft, Hereford, was an office worker for Herefordshire firm Green Man Environmental Services when she started defrauding her employer.
She used the company's finances to buy items for herself from Amazon and eBay.
The 37-year-old gained a total of over £10,000 worth of goods.

She pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud at Kidderminster Magistrates' Court this month and must complete 80 hours of unpaid work as part of a 12-month community order.
Prosecutor Angla Hallan said Seavor committed fraud while she was occupying her position of office administrator at Green Man, in which she was expected to safeguard and not act against the company's financial interests.
As well as completing the unpaid work, Seavor must attend up to 15 days of probation appointments and pay compensation of £10,444 to Green Man.
