In Fort Wayne, IN seven people are facing charges for participating in a fraudualant check-cashing scheme. The group began cashing fake payroll checks between $600-$800 dollars. The checks had been issued through the Company Paragon Home Care. The owner of Paragon Home Care had stopped issuing payroll checks in 2009 after being victimized before on fraudualnt payroll checks, which means that the seven people had began forging their own checks. Only ten checks had successfully been cashed between may and June 2010.
Of the seven that had been convicted five of the of the people are being charged with currupt business influence, and racketeering.
To do something this currupt within the business you work for is very un-ethical. There had to be very little job satisfaction, and a lack of organizational commitment. If this is the second time that these practices have happened. I believe its about time that the company does something to beef up their security or begin to hire a better quality of employees.

I definitely agree with your explanation of why they did it. The company really does need to change the way it hires employees and add have an ethical workshop for every employee new or current.
ReplyDeleteI agree. For this to be the second time the company has experienced these acts it is not good. I think the company needs to make major decision on how they want to operate because the way they have been going is not working.

ReplyDeleteIn addition to beefing up security and hiring higher quality employees, they should be looking into revitalizing their organizational structure. Since this happened twice, I think if the structure of the organization is not changed, then nothing will change.
