Dampening Easter services at African-American churches around the country this year is a computer scam that DC officials say has cost some congregations $50,000 or more.
District of Columbia Attorney General Peter Nickles filed suit against several individuals and companies accusing them of a nationwide scam to defraud African-American church congregations of hundreds of thousands of dollars. The scam allegedly targeted up to 50 predominantly congregations in the District, as well as many more in Maryland, Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas, California and other states, he said.
