Trump launched a ‘war on fraud.’ Here's why it’s a 50‑state problem
President Trump declared a 'war on fraud,' but experts say it's a battle that has eluded presidents for decades.
The Government Accountability Office estimated in January that the government loses as much as $521 billion annually to fraud. Haywood Talcove, one of the country's top government fraud experts, told USA TODAY the fraud could be as high as $1 trillion a year or more.
