Dear State Employee:
The Maryland General Assembly’s Office of Legislative Audits operates a tollfree
fraud hotline for State employees to report allegations of fraud and/or abuse
of State resources. Information reported to the hotline in the past has helped to
eliminate certain fraudulent activities and protect State resources.
The types of activities that should be reported include, but are not limited to:
Fraud
Questionable Procurement Practices
Potential Conflicts of Interest
Significant Violations of Laws
Corruption
Vendor Kickbacks and Regulations
Theft
Misuse or Abuse of State Resources
The number to call is 1 (877) FRAUD-11 (or 1 (877) 372-8311). State employees
can also use the Internet to report allegations over a secure connection at
http://www.ola.state.md.us (click on “Stop Fraud”). Information received is considered
confidential and you can remain anonymous.
The toll-free hotline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Office of
Legislative Audits is an independent, non-partisan agency that provides audit
services to the General Assembly in its oversight capacity.
If you have any questions, please call the hotline for additional information.
Thank you.
Brian Tanen, CPA, CFE
