FRAUD ISSUES?
Unfortunately, grant dollars are susceptible to fraud, waste
and abuse. Using federal grant dollars for unjust enrichment,
personal gain or other than their intended use is a form of theft,
subject to criminal and civil prosecution under the laws of the
United States.
Federal grant dollars are susceptible to several forms of
financial theft, most commonly in the form of specific federal
violations, including: embezzlement, theft or bribery, false
statements, false claims, and mail and wire fraud. Each of
these violations of the law is subject to criminal prosecution,
fines, restitution and civil penalties.
