Corporate Whistleblower Center Urges Defense Contractor Managers To Call Them About Reward Programs If The Company Is Overbilling The DOD-Because Of Recent Reward
(PRWEB) October 29, 2014 -- The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "According to the Justice Department the Boeing Company has paid $23 million to resolve allegations that it submitted false claims for labor charges on maintenance contracts with the U.S. Air Force for the C-17 Globemaster aircraft. What we want to emphasize to an employee of any type of defense contractor is if you can prove wrong doing involving your employer, and overbilling the Department of Defense there could be huge rewards. In this specific instance the Boeing whistleblowers will receive $3,910,000 as their share of the settlement.
"If you have proof about any type of contractor overbilling the DOD in any conceivable way please call us anytime at 866-714-6466, so that we can carefully explain the federal whistleblower program to you, and hopefully get you to some of the nation's most skilled whistleblower attorneys. We are very intersted in talking to whistleblowers who have proof a DOD contractor has overbilled the government for logistics services, for training services, for technology services, or building services." http://CorporateWhistleblowerCenter.Com
In a October 2014 press release the Justice Department alleged that Boeing improperly charged labor costs under contracts with the Air Force for the maintenance and repair of C-17 Globemaster aircraft at Boeing’s Aerospace Support Center in San Antonio, Texas. The C-17 Globemaster aircraft, which is both manufactured and maintained by Boeing, is one of the military’s major systems for transporting troops and cargo throughout the world. The government alleged that the company knowingly and improperly billed a variety of labor costs in violation of applicable contract requirements, including for time its mechanics spent at meetings not directly related to the contracts. http://CorporateWhistleblowerCenter.Com
Simple rules for a whistleblower from the Corporate Whistleblower Center:
- Do not go to the government first if you are a major whistleblower. The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, “Major whistleblowers frequently go to the federal government thinking they will help. It’s a huge mistake.”
- Do not go to the news media with your whistleblower information. Public revelation of a whistleblower’s information could destroy any prospect for a reward.
- Do not try to force a government contractor or corporation to come clean to the government about their wrongdoing. The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, “Fraud is so rampant among federal contractors that any suggestion of exposure might result in an instant job termination, or harassment of the whistleblower. Come to us first, tell us what type of information you have, and if we think it’s sufficient, we will help find the right law firms to assist in advancing your information.”
- The Corporate Whistleblower Center wants to emphasize there are high quality whistleblowers in every state including California, New York, Florida, Texas, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Missouri, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Kansas, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Washington, and Alaska.
