Reporting Fraud

Each year, unscrupulous people steal or intentionally misuse ED funds— Federal student aid, special education money, or Title I funds to school districts with low-income families. They intentionally abuse ED programs, unlawfully access ED computer systems and databases, or use ED funding to support terrorism. We need your help to stop them.
