Abstract
A Belhaven College employee was approached from behind in a Belhaven parking lot and robbed of their wallet and a laptop computer which contained Social Security numbers, names and bank account information on a number of Belhaven employees. While the College is not aware of how many employees are affected, Belhaven issued a memo to all employees warning of the possibility of Identity Theft. According to Belhaven College President Roger Parrott, there have been no reported ID thefts related to this theft and the memo was sent out as a precaution. In this memo Parrott suggests that employees contact one of the three major credit bureaus and alert them to the possibility of Identity Theft.
