Strip clubs and comp cheats seem to go together

July 6, 2010 by Jim Burger

Where’s the best place to find a workers’ comp cheat? You might want to check out all the strip clubs in your area.

Yes, it involves tough investigative work, but a clear pattern seems to be emerging.

Consider these recent stories:

A Quakertown, PA, woman was arrested for fraud after an investigation found her working as a stripper at a club in neighboring Easton, PA.
A Lindenhurst, NY, man was nabbed for working as a disc jockey in a Utica, NY, club called “Peepers.” Investigators said he’d been working there for five years, in fact, and getting comp all the while.
An Islip, NY, man has been charged with fraud after he was found working as a bouncer at an all-nude club in West Babylon, NY.

We’re not sure exactly what’s going on here. But we suggest you keep your eyes open.
