Serious Social Security Fraud

The vast majority of the Social Security fraud prosecutions are minor league affairs, with little threat of real jail time, but there are exceptions. The Herald of Rock Hill, SC reports that a jail guard in Chester County, SC has drawn a twenty month sentence for bribing an employee of a Georgia SSA office to supply blank Social Security cards which were then sold to undocumented aliens for $1,000 each. Apparently, the charges against the SSA employee have not yet been resolved.
