The Government has a CASH for Fraud program called the False Claims Act. Do you work in the office of a company that is cheating the Government? Does the firm falsify bids to the Government? This happens every day in the mortgage segment of the industry.
An office worker can be rewarded with millions of dollars on a fraud complaint under the False Claims Act. Stop fraud and be rewarded big time.
If you are aware of fraud in your office and do not report it, you could be charged with the felony charge of obstruction of justice.
Read below about a case of workman's compensation fraud by a postal worker.
Cathy Wrench Cashwell pleaded guilty to fraud in federal court Monday, WRAL.com reports. Cashwell had been collecting worker's compensation payments since injuring herself on the job in 2004.
In worker's compensation paperwork filed in September 2011, Cashwell claimed the shoulder injury left her unable to sit, stand, kneel, squat, climb, bend, reach or grasp, according to federal investigators.
However, Cashwell was able to reach up and spin the famous "big wheel" on "The Price is Right" not once, but twice, during her 2009 appearance on the TV show.
Cashwell "raised her left arm above her head and gripped the handle with her left hand," according to an indictment filed in September 2012. During her second spin, Cashwell "raised both arms above her head and gripped the same handle with both hands."
Cashwell also allegedly went ziplining while on vacation in August 2010.
