Last week the General Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church released a statement that it had been the victim of online theft. No personal information was taken, but about $500,000 was stolen, according to the statement released by Adventist News Network (ANN), the official news service of the denomination.
The theft involved a transfer of funds for an organization or institution within the denomination. Church officials are cooperating with Federal authorities in the United States who are investigating the crime. They are also working with the banks and insurance companies to determine what recoveries may be possible. Information so far suggests that there was no insider involvement in the crime.
“No personal information such as private information, personal donor records or internal accounts were accessed or compromised in the scheme” assured the denomination's treasurer, Bob Lemon. “We are modifying procedures to do our best to prevent this from happening again.”
