The church declined to disclose how much money is involved in the theft or to provide specifics of the scheme for fear of jeopardizing the FBI probe, said Brent King, director of communications for the diocese.
``This involves account numbers that were taken,'' King said. ``When the thieves tried to use them, it threw up red flags,'' and the parish notified authorities.
FBI officials in Detroit said they could not comment on whether they were investigating the case.
Catherine Mangarelli, parish administrator, said no one in the parish is involved in the theft. She said it appears the fraud was perpetrated by people from outside of the Kalamazoo area.
