I understand that, "where there's a will, there's a way" but with E.B.T., how do they do it?
Buy expensive things that can be easily resold at a discount for cash.
See 9 plus some of them have more than one identity. We had a couple of fraudsters here in WI who were pulling down incomes in the high 6 figures as childcare providers. They were on record as working for each otherwhen they weren’t. The centers received subsidies/tuition for children who were not enrolled, etc..
Someone explained this ro me just last evening. Say someone gets $600 food stamps on an EBT. They sell $50 FS for $25 cash...$100 FS for $50. All they need to do is loan the card and give the pin number. No one checks for signatures if you have the right pin. In and out. So someone gets an extra $25 free food for their $25. And the recipient gets cash for whatever. No skin off their nose because the FS were free.
So if you sell $400 of your $600 it’s $200 cash. Very lucrative. That is the minimum. Some places they sell for more.
