Five People are Banned From Credit Unions by NCUA

ALEXANDRIA, Va.—NCUA has issued one consent-based prohibition and four conviction-based prohibitions, which permanently bans all five individuals from ever again participating in the affairs of any federally insured depository institution.

Order of Prohibition

Issued the Order of Prohibition was:

Abbigail Iglesias, former employee of Affinity Plus Federal Credit Union, Saint Paul, Minn., who agreed and consented to the issuance of a prohibition order and agreed to comply with all its terms to settle and resolve the NCUA Board’s claims against her.

According to its Administrative Order, NCUA found that from at least October 2023, through December 2024, Iglesias was employed as a teller with APFCU, and that during her employment, it is alleged she engaged in misconduct for her personal financial benefit by fraudulently reporting mutilated cash in her cash drawer.
