“• “It was made public that the City of Moline fell victim of a cyber-attack in form of a phishing scam. It was discovered by city staff in January 2021, and the apparent scam happened in December 2020. A vendor that the City of Moline works with reached out and explained that it had not received payment for services completed.” • “The city has insurance in place to cover cyber crime. This limits the exposure to Moline taxpayers to a maximum of $20,000 regardless of whether none, a portion or all of the stolen funds are recovered.” • “As a result of the incident, the city reviewed all of its internal control policies with the assistance of its auditors” • “The Moline Police Department still has an open investigation into this matter and is working with federal authorities on the investigation. Due to that, we aren't able to divulge further information that may jeopardize the investigation.” “
