Considering that I worked for Friedman's Jewelers in their corporate office and was there when the Feds came in...

Fortunately I didn't have to do that as it was already done. Stinn and company thought they could pull one.

Nice ladies in there who loved the stockroom

Your company hopefully has a fraud hotline that allows you to anonymously report. If it does, use it.

Call me what you want, but I am not going down for anybody. Well, I have one or two people I would go down WITH, but I would never be put in that situation with them. Loyalty is overrated and if I could get in trouble for what someone else does, I am doing what's in my best interest.. No question about it.

Just curious, is it straight up fraud? Or is it possible it's a recurring billing error? If it's an error, and the company is legit, they can correct the error and refund Medicaid. If it's straight up fraud, hell yeah, blow the whistle.

I believe a whistle blower is entitled to 15% if the fraud is against the government. So hell yes.

I would gather enough information to become an expert in the fraud scheme, blow the whistle, and then travel around the country for the next 20 years telling the story to conference rooms full of accountants.

Absolutely. I would have reported it before even discussing it on the OT.
