BALTIMORE — Thieves are stealing money given to families through federal assistance programs. Hours after SNAP and cash benefits are deposited onto their EBT cards, it’s taken from their accounts.⁠
⁠
WMAR-2 News Mallory Sofastaii reported on this spike in stolen benefits and how the Maryland Department of Human Services is not reimbursing victims.⁠
⁠
An agency spokesperson said it’s not able to reimburse victims with federal funds, however, Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger’s office confirmed that states have the ability to replace benefits with local or state funds. The D.C. Department of Human Services is currently doing this.⁠
