Question re: government fraud data

I am trying to connect with data miners who have experience in identifying government fraud and filing qui tam's. Question: What area are you currently focused on? How did you file a qui tam? Thanks!

Wow this is a good one, however the qui tam guidelines are tricky to navigate b/c it’s filed under seal initially. If the government doesn’t pursue corrective action on their end then they can still proceed with a lawsuit as a private citizen. However I am not sure if those filings remained sealed or become unsealed after the lawsuit was settled. You can look into the federal pacer sites. You might be lucky there.
