Unemployment Insurance Fraud
In order to legally receive unemployment benefits, an individual must lose their job through no fault of their own. While receiving benefits, they are required to report any changes to their income situation. Failure to do so is considered fraud and can result in penalties such as fines, prison time or probation.
This charge is taken seriously by the government, and prosecutors aggressively pursue convictions in these cases, seeking to make an example out of offenders. Fraud or suspected fraud is often uncovered through random audits after fraud has taken place for a considerable length of time.
