We Want YOU! (to Report Fraud, Waste, and Abuse)

Posted on August 24, 2017

Fraud, waste, abuse, or mismanagement of federal funds erodes the public’s trust in the government. So, we’re trying to make it as easy as possible to spot it and report it!

If you suspect that these kinds of activities are happening, you can anonymously report them to GAO’s FraudNet hotline—(800) 424-5454—via email, or online. Since 1979, FraudNet has received and referred thousands of tips that have helped find and prosecute fraudsters—saving millions of taxpayer dollars.

To learn more about fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement, check out our new video (along with our infographic) on FraudNet.
