Should Your Second Job Be “Blowing The Whistle”?

A former Department of Justice fraud attorney has written a book that tells how to collect rewards for “whistle blowing” and reporting fraud. 1 in 5 whistleblowers actually receives a reward with 1 in 25 earning a reward over $1 million! Not a bad day’s work. But, of course, you might be out of your day job!

The first $500 from every taxpayer in the United States is lost to fraud each year, and a lawyer has launched a new book and website encouraging citizens who have information about scams to report them.

By the way, notes lawyer Joel Hesch, you could collect millions – even hundreds of millions – in rewards.

With his new book, “Whistleblowing: A Guide to Government Reward Programs,”Hesch is on a mission to save taxpayers some of the estimated $150 billion lost to fake invoices, overbilling, misdirected funds and other illegal maneuvers.

Hesch… is an expert on the subject from his 15 years with the Department of Justice Fraud Section where he helped oversee the payout of about $2 billion in rewards to whistleblowers.
