Millicent police have arrested two women after they allegedly stole $20,000 from a disabled man's bank account.
A 33-year-old Millicent woman and a 51-year-old woman from Tantanoola have both been charged with dishonestly exploiting a position of advantage for benefit.
Police say the women were carers for the disabled man from Millicent.
They say between July and September, $20,000 was stolen from the man's bank account in about 30 transactions.
The women were released on bail and are due to appear in the Millicent Magistrates Court next month.
