An appearance on wheel-spinning gameshow "The Price Is Right" led to the downfall of a North Carolina postal service employee who has since pleaded guilty to committing workers' compensation fraud.

Federal investigators say postal worker Cathy Wrench Cashwell, of Fayetteville, N.C., knowingly lied in her September 2011 workers' comp filing. According to North Carolina's WRAL, Cashwell had claimed she could no longer stand, sit, kneel, squat, climb, bend, reach, grasp or lift mail trays due to an on-the-job injury in 2004. But investigators found a crack in her story: In 2009 Cashwell appeared on "The Price is Right" and was capable of spinning the "big wheel" twice.

The indictment, filed last September, also alleged Cashwell went zip-lining on a Carnival Cruise vacation in 2010 and was seen lifting and carrying furniture on separate occasions in 2011. In federal court on Monday, she pleaded guilty to fraud. Her sentencing is slated for September.
