Reidville Fire Dept

Reidville Fire Dept

Hackers stole $8,156 from the Reidville Fire District’s payroll accounts.

The theft surfaced when six firefighters, including the chief, did not receive a regular direct deposit of their paychecks.

Apparently, the hackers gained access to the department’s payroll portal through an email exchange with accountants in which the hackers spoofed their identity to appear to be fire department personnel.
