WEST FRANKFORT – The City of West Frankfort is reporting that the recent breach in the mayor’s email account has been resolved.

According to a post on the City of West Frankfort-Mayor’s Office Facebook page, measures have been put in place to prevent future issues of this type.

Earlier this month, the city warned residents about an email from Mayor Tim Arview’s account asking for an approval review or one similar to it. Residents were told to not open any attachments or click any links because his account had been breached. The mayor’s email address is mayor@westfrankfort-il.gov.

The city’s information technology team began working to resolve the problem.

The city apologizes again for any inconvenience this may have caused.
