Bail set for woman accused of running travel voucher scheme

Urbanovsky ran a scheme through her event-planning business, Creative Creations, to sell discounted Southwest Airlines travel vouchers, which turned out to be worthless, County Attorney Don Kleine said.

Urbanovsky had three employees use their personal credit cards to buy $141,000 in vouchers when she exceeded her own credit card limits, promising to pay them back, Kleine said.

Officials have said those who bought the useless vouchers likely won't recover the money.

Since March, the Better Business Bureau in Omaha has received more than 1,500 complaints about the vouchers, and losses associated with the complaints total more than $1.3 million, said Jim Hegarty, the bureau's president.
