Auditor pushes fraud investigation unit for public complaints
State Auditor Glen Gainer wins legislative approval to create a sanctioned unit to receive and investigate government waste and fraud complaints. Senate Judiciary Chairman Bill Wooton says the measure, backed after discussions with Gainer, clears a reporting path without increasing funds beyond one extra hire.
State officials wary of added work on fraud and waste complaints
Senate judiciary chairman Bill Wooton says few officials seek more work as West Virginia tightens rules. Gainer notes his office now mails complaint forms for anonymous tips, enabling verification and avoiding multiple reports. Calls to 1-888-368-9507 or fraud@wv auditor dot com obtain forms.
