Fraudsters Steal Millions from Safety Net | Charleston News
Description
Fraudsters are ripping off millions via Medicaid and food stamp programs using stolen IDs—even dead people’s—while states lack basic verification rules.

Nearly 24 million Americans get identity theft yearly, and half of state food stamp programs have rampant fraud costing over $2.2 billion. It’s time to secure these systems and protect taxpayer dollars.
