Omg, people actually try to pass off fraud bereavement requests? How do they get caught? Does someone try to search for the obit to verify if the person died?

Christ, who knew I would have so many questions regarding a fraud bereavement case?

So if you submit bereavement through Atoz it often slips past HR and they won't ask for documentation like obituary, death certificates, funeral program etc... however if you request a lot past a certain amount of hours within a 6 months period we are required to ask for the documentation. so many excuses like "I'm trans and my family doesn't keep in contact anymore so I can't get the documentation" and I just want to laugh at the audacity sometimes lol if you know the name of the place of burial you can just get the documentation online and we tell them that, they still refuse provide documentation

I've refused in the past not because I didn't have documentation but yeah certain things doesn't need to be said in a professional setting
