SEATTLE (AP) — Two Catholic high schools in Seattle have changed their schedules Friday so the staff can deal with the threat of identity theft.

O'Dea High cancelled classes and Bishop Blanchet High is dismissing students early.

KING reports (http://bit.ly/1dYZRor) the Archdiocese of Seattle said it was a victim of a tax refund fraud. Someone has apparently acquired information about employees and church volunteers and has been filing false tax returns and taking the refunds.
