The Paris prosecutor's office announced Friday that it was investigating “massive” partial unemployment fraud, involving “international financial flows”, which caused “more than 1.7 million euros” of damage.
According to initial investigations, "fraudulent claims for payment of compensation were made by electronic declaration by usurping the company name and the SIRET identification number of existing companies which did not ask to benefit from aid for partial activity", explains in a statement the prosecution, which took up Monday two investigations initiated by the prosecution of Toulouse and Limoges.
