We closed the account and then they told me it for Ohio unemployment benefits. I thought it was from Texas. Nope. Ohio. I called up the Ohio unemployment agency and started a fraud investigation. They were all set to send CASH to a specified account. The EBT card was not the account.
What I don't understand, how can someone apply for Ohio benefits with a Texas mailing address and no Ohio employment records?

I guess they faked the job records or the state never checked in the rush
