Fraudsters are once again targeting EDD but this time, they're going after disability claims.
— Fraudsters are once again targeting EDD but this time, they’re going after disability claims.
“Today is 56 days since I have been paid,” said one disability recipient. “Fortunately I had a little nest egg but it’s getting down to the end. I am down to pennies.” “It’s just really hard not having any income and not being able to work. So it’s like a catch 22,” she said.“I have emailed them, I have submitted claim update forms, I have called them at all times of the day and I can never get through.”
“I think the basic problem is that EDD cannot tell the difference between a legitimate claimant and the fraudster,” Patterson said. “These are individuals who have had claims with disability going back weeks, maybe months. They have been established. These people are known to the EDD.”
