Hulk Hogan’s former accountant faces federal wire fraud charges for allegedly embezzling more than $890,000 from an unidentified Florida client (believed to be Hogan). Melissia Gauthreaux, founder of Accounting Resources & Management Services LLC in Palm Harbor, was indicted on six counts of wire fraud. Each count carries a potential 20-year prison sentence. Federal prosecutors say Gauthreaux used her signatory authority between 2017 and 2021 to transfer money from a client’s bank account without permission or knowledge. While the victim wasn’t named in court documents, officials described them as a “public figure.” Sources confirmed to TMZ that Gauthreaux worked for Hogan during the timeframe of the alleged crimes. The wrestling legend died July 24, 2025, at age 71 from a heart attack.
