DENVER — A surge in unemployment fraud is affecting legitimate claims, but the Colorado Department of Labor and Unemployment says they are working to address the issue.
"This has just gone on and on and on," Junnila said."So I was at my wit's end, I reached out [to Contact Denver7] and you were the one that kind of got the ball rolling as far as cleaning up the ID. So thank you so much for that." Because of the increase in claims, the department moved all of its fraud detection tools to the highest possible level.
Since April 1, the department has seen 62,000 initial claims. Of those, 22,000 currently have fraud holds in place, 5,766 of which are active claims.
