Iowa University Employee Arrested After Using School Credit Cards Get our free mobile app An Iowa State University employee fell into the temptation and was just arrested for making unauthorized personal purchases on the school's credit card totaling thousands. According to KCRG, officials said 25-year-old Miranda Richmann admitted to "attempting transactions using a school procurement card with Xoom, PayPal, Wells Fargo Bank, Western Union Bank, Target, Serve Credit Union, Venmo, Sam’s Club and Walmart." All of those unauthorized transactions totaled a whopping $115,000. The procurement cards (or p-cards as they're called) are given to employees to purchase services and supplies for work purposes. Clearly, the work and personal line for Richmann wasn't so black and white, despite the fact that she signed an agreement not to use the cards for personal purposes in March.
