Scott Sullivan (executive)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scott D. Sullivan is an American Certified Public Accountant and the former Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Board member and Secretary of WorldCom, who engineered WorldCom's $11-billion accounting fraud, the largest scandal of its kind in U.S. history.
Sullivan entered a guilty plea and was sentenced to five years in prison as part of a plea agreement in which Sullivan testified against former WorldCom CEO Bernard Ebbers, who received a 25-year sentence (the maximum sentence that Sullivan could have received if he had not accepted the plea agreement and was found guilty).
Sullivan graduated from the State University of New York at Oswego in 1983, and was awarded the Anniversary Class Award for alumni in 1998. He attended Bethlehem Central High School in Delmar, New York. Sullivan is also alumni of Bethlehem's fraternity Sigma Kappa Delta.
