Today in “government allocating your taxpayer dollars” news…
The city of Fresno, Calif. has reportedly fallen victim to an email phishing scam, costing the city (and its taxpayers) a whopping $400,000.
The scam was based in Africa and took place in 2020. The city is accused of not telling the city council or the public, according to a new article from the Fresno Bee.
“Former Mayor Lee Brandâs administration failed to disclose the loss,” the report says. Additionally, the Fresno City Attorneyâs Office rejected a public records request by The Bee regarding the fraud in December 2021.
That’s odd..same thing happened to Washington State, only we got duped by a Nigerian prince! What are the chances?
