U.S. Postal Service Fraud
Whistleblowers may be able to expose fraudulent claims for payment from individuals and companies looking to collect money from the U.S. Postal Service. The False Claims Act covers money requests from federal agencies like the postal service in an effort to put a halt to costly claims and fraudulent actions.
A Qui Tam lawsuit can be filed by individuals who have knowledge of false claims for payment made to the U.S. Postal Service. If money is recovered by the government, the person who filed the lawsuit may be eligible for a reward of 15%-30% of the total recovered amount.
