How Staffing Scams Are Making Insurance Costs Skyrocket for Everyone 🐷💼

Oh honey, if you’ve looked at your workers’ comp premiums lately and nearly choked on your oat milk latte, you’re not alone. The numbers are climbing, the bills are bloated, and the reason? Scammy staffing agencies playing the system like it’s their personal piggy bank.

Here’s the tea: these fraudsters lie about payroll, forge Certificates of Insurance, and piggyback off policies that don’t belong to them. They rake in profits while leaving unpaid claims, tax fraud, and legal disasters in their glittery little wake. And when the insurance carriers finally catch on? They raise premiums across the board, to cover the damage.

That means you, the honest business owner, are now paying more because some two-bit con artist in a discount suit didn’t want to follow the rules. Your clean record? Doesn’t matter. Your legitimate claims history? Irrelevant. Fraud drives up costs for everyone, like a bad spray tan ruining the whole pool.

And don’t think you’re safe just because you’ve never had a problem. If your staffing partner is shady, even quietly shady, you’ll be the one footing the bill when the fraud catches up.

So yes, darling, insurance is getting more expensive. But the solution isn’t to cut corners. It’s to cut out the fraudsters.

Verify every policy. Question every rate. And if someone offers you a deal that sounds too good to be legal? It probably is. Miss Piggy doesn’t subsidize scammers, and neither should you.

The Fresno Fraud Family, Walstad’s Rebranding Fails to Fool the Law 🐷

Well, my darlings, it seems the tea is particularly scalding today! Mrs. Piggy here, ready to pull back the curtain on yet another act of audacious deceit. Enter stage left: Michael Walstad, now trying to reinvent himself as Michael A. Betrovian . Yes, you heard that right. The head honcho of the infamous Fresno Fraud Family has gone full-on undercover, slapping a shiny new name on his old, tired bag of tricks. But here’s the catch, no one’s buying it, least of all the law. Buckle up, because this tale is juicier than a watermelon on a summer’s day. Rebranding Gone Wrong Changing your name from Walstad to Betrovian might sound fancy, but it’s about as effective as putting lipstick on a pig.

Piggybacking, A Fraudulent Tail (and Tale) in Workers' Comp 🐷💼

Oh, darlings, do pull up a chair because Miss Piggy has a scandal to unravel that’s juicier than a gossip column and dirtier than a pigsty. It’s the sordid tale of piggybacking, a fraudulent scheme in workers’ compensation that’s turning the staffing industry into a circus of greed and deceit. And let me tell you, the stars of this show aren’t just shady; they’re downright villainous. Now, for the uninitiated, piggybacking isn’t some cute term for teamwork. No, no, it’s when a staffing agency skips out on buying its own workers' comp insurance and instead borrows another company’s policy like a bad houseguest who never leaves. These fraudsters, the so called Piggybackers, parade their fake certificates of insurance (oh, the audacity! 🐽) while unsuspecting workers and businesses are left footing the bill when things go south. Take Mike Ersling, for instance, a name that deserves its own place in the fraud hall of fame. This porky perpetrator shoved $300 million of payroll ...
