The "initial survey of Unemployment Insurance claims since 2020" found that thousands of people with future birthdates claimed benefits.
The survey also indicated that thousands of supposedly very young and very old people had claimed benefits.
The DOGE post states that the survey found, "24.5k people over 115 years old claimed $59M in benefits," "28k people between 1 and 5 years old claimed $254M in benefits," and "9.7k people with birth dates over 15 years in the future claimed $69M in benefits."
"In one case, someone with a birthday in 2154 claimed $41k," the post also notes.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Department of Labor for comment: "This is another incredible discovery by the DOGE team, finding nearly $400 million in fraudulent unemployment payments," Department of Labor Sec. Lori Chavez-DeRemer said in a statement. "The Labor Department is committed to recovering Americans’ stolen tax dollars. We will catch these thieves and keep working to root out egregious fraud - accountability is here."
