Two Northwest Louisiana Women Arrested for Fraud

Bossier Parish – On September 21, 2018, a Bossier City woman and a Shreveport woman voluntarily surrendered after learning the Louisiana State Police had issued arrest warrants for forgery, identity theft and computer fraud.

In March of 2018, the Louisiana State Police Insurance Fraud and Auto Theft Unit (IFAT) Shreveport Field Office opened an investigation regarding forged documents that were sent to Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Louisiana, Mutual of Omaha and Colonial Life Insurance companies.

LSP-IFAT detectives concluded the investigation last week which resulted in warrants being issued for 52-year-old Kristy S. Fleming of Bossier City and 39-year-old Natalie N. Morgan of Shreveport. The offenses took place while the two women were employed by Gibsland Bank & Trust (d/b/a GBT Insurance Agency). Fleming was employed as an insurance producer, and Morgan was her assistant. The women turned themselves into authorities and were booked into the Bossier Parish maximum security facility.

The investigation thwarted a potential fraud amount of $600,000.00 per year. They were charged with the following:

Kristy S. Fleming – Forgery (5 counts), identity theft (5 counts) and computer fraud (5 counts)

Natalie N. Morgan – Forgery (1 count), identity theft (1 count) and computer fraud (1 count)

Fleming’s bond was set at $20,000.00 and Morgan’s bond was set at $15,000.00.

The Louisiana State Police Insurance Fraud and Auto Theft Unit urges anyone who may have knowledge of a fraudulent scheme or the location of a stolen vehicle to report the activity by emailing insurance.fraud.unit@dps.la.gov or calling 225.925.3701.
