A former head of security at Lloyds Banking Group has been charged in connection with an alleged £2.5m fraud.
Jessica Harper is accused of submitting false invoices to claim payments totalling £2.463.750 between September 2008 and December 2011, the Telegraph reported.
At the time she was working as head of fraud and security for digital banking at Lloyds.
Harper will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 31 May.
She has been charged with one count of fraud by abuse of position.
A spokesman for Lloyds said: “As the court process is ongoing it would be inappropriate for us to comment.”
