“A hacker had gotten into Cool’s WMU account and changed the routing number for his payments, he said, sending $1,518.62 to a bank in Utah. The crime was traced to a computer in New Mexico, Cool said he was told by detectives at the Western Michigan University Department of Public Safety. There was $11.08 left in the Utah account, which is all Cool has gotten back of his paycheck. On Dec. 20, WMU issued him a paycheck advance, Cool said, which he is paying back in four installments. However, he said he believes the university should reimburse him for his loss, since it was its system that was hacked.”
