Unemployment fraud is gripping most of the country right now. Much of the fraud is due to criminals taking advantage of an overwhelmed system. They obtain and use personally identifiable information (PII) to file for unemployment. In other cases, it is someone who returns to work in the same capacity while continuing to receive unemployment checks.
