Report ID: PSETS0000112995, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Reported Entity: DAYTON OH - 552
Issue:
Travel pay was to be deposited into Employee A's personal bank account. The money did not arrive in the employee's account. The fiscal employee checked and found that the deposit may have been placed into Employee B's bank account with a similar name. The fiscal employee gave the bank account number of Employee B to Employee A to verify with the bank (both A and B have accounts at the same bank). The money was deposited into Employee B's account. The improper disclosure of Employee B's bank account number to Employee A was accomplished by the fiscal employee.
Outcome:
12/22/14: The Incident Resolution Service Team has determined that Veteran B will be sent a letter offering credit protection services.
