Former Bankrate CFO Edward DiMaria is going to prison for 10 years. The former Bankrate CFO pleaded guilty to orchestrating a fraud scheme that caused more than $25 million in shareholder losses.
Bankrate is a publisher and news aggregator of personal finance content. The company also is a key lead generator for the financial services industry.
DiMaria pleaded guilty in June to a laundry list of securities and bank fraud allegations. He pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to make false statements to a public company’s accountants and falsify a public company’s records and accounts. He also pleaded guilty to one count of making materially false statements to the SEC.
DiMaria admitted that he directed and conspired to commit a complex scheme to artificially inflate Bankrate’s earnings. He used a “cookie jar” or “cushion” accounting scheme to siphon off money from the company.
