Burlington, Vermont - January 14, 2008

Federal prosecutors say a woman from Williamstown ran a designer handbag scam on eBay that netted over $100,000.

28-year-old Jenny Donahue, also known as Jenny Bryant, used over a dozen names and e-mail addresses to sell phony couture handbags on eBay to over 250 people.

She pleaded guilty to fraud charges and was sentenced to five years probation, 100 hours of community service and restitution.

Should have gotten more years
