am having a bit of a situation. Last July I was put out of commission by my company. I then opened an unemployment insurance claim. Being a forgetful person that I am, I created a little computer program that would counts the day and the month and automatically goes online to do the claim for me (the software is called Automate Enterprise by Unisync). When the check comes home my girlfriend would either cash or deposit the check for me (I usually just sign every paper she gives me to sign). That was all well and good until my company called me back to work, I shut my little program off but when the computer was reset it got turned back on and the claim went on for 21 weeks. After discovering (one month after) that I was getting money I wasn’t suppose to, I immediately went to the New Jersey Department of Labor and explained to them what happened and was willing to pay them back in full. They said that they will pull my pay record and work hour. They also said that they will either make me pay the money back or put me on fraud status. How likely will I be indicted for fraud? Could I also be fired for what happened?
