FEMA Fraud: 20 Times More Applicants than Homes in Los Angeles Fires
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been flooded with 270,000 applications from individuals claiming to be homeowners affected by the recent fires in Los Angeles. However, only around 13,000 homes were actually destroyed in the blaze.A FEMA representative revealed the overwhelming number of claims, a figure that is more than twenty times the amount of eligible applicants, highlighting ongoing concerns about fraudulent submissions, which have persisted well over two months after the fire.
As reported by Breitbart News, many residents who were displaced tried to apply for FEMA assistance, only to discover that someone had already submitted an application using their personal information, including their address, effectively preventing them from gaining access to relief.
