A bit unrelated, but states make it easy to scam unemployment insurance too! I've had a rando collecting unemployment benefits from my company's account for a year now because my company's name is similar to a grimy company that hires contractors and operates in a different industry. I've never had a relationship with the claimant and don't even know who they are. My theory is: The scammers search for businesses with similar names to whom they contracted for and submit unemployment claims to whomever looks similar on the state business registration website. The state doesn't check to see if there was actually a record of employment and just puts the burden of proof on the business. If the response by the business isn't timely or things get lost in the mail, the state pays out whatever they claim. At this time the risk appears small to the scammer as our fraud reports went nowhere, the cost to my business is large as it screws our UI experience rates up and has now lead to having to change/rebrand the business's name.
