A northwest suburban animal shelter is trying to take a bite out of crime after it fell victim to digital fraud.
Kristin Cibulka is executive director of the shelter, which finds new homes for about 1,000 dogs and cats a year, many of whom would otherwise be euthanized.
"Our Facebook is our lifeline. It’s where we showcase all our animals. It’s where we do the majority of our fundraising," Cibulka said. "They were posting them with intent of getting deposits, saying ‘we have this beautiful puppy. First person who gives us in positive $400 gets the dog’," she said. Krishnamoorthi’s staff was able to get ahold of Facebook, which returned control of the page to the shelter after 12 days of illegal activity.
