Recovery: Fraud and Abuse

Connecticut, along with the Federal Government, is undertaking significant measures to bring an unprecedented degree of transparency to the implementation of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). The purpose of this section is to provide the public with a vehicle for reporting suspected fraud, waste or abuse they believe is occurring with stimulus dollars.

On a regular basis, a link to a section on the Federal Recovery website will be posted concerning suspected scams associated with stimulus funds. To view the current posting please click here: http://www.recovery.gov/?q=content/recovery-board-issues-update-recovery-act-frauds-and-scams.
