The FBI is searching for a Michigan woman accused of scamming California banks out of $30 million nearly a decade ago.
Authorities say Mary Carole McDonnell, 73, pretended to be an heir to the McDonnell Aircraft Corporation and claimed she had access to an $80 million trust.
At the time, McDonnell was the CEO of a struggling entertainment company.
It is alleged that she used the stolen money to pay employees and cover business expenses.
The FBI believes McDonnell may have fled to Dubai.
