UCSF employee charged with wire fraud

Posted on May 13, 2010 by Dissent

Henry K. Lee reports:

A UCSF Medical Center employee has been charged in federal court with wire fraud for allegedly using the Social Security numbers of fellow workers to complete online health surveys so that he could receive hundreds of $100 vouchers.

From January to April, Cam Giang of San Francisco used other UC employees’ personal information to create accounts for a Web site maintained by StayWell Health Management Inc., which conducts online health surveys for employees, federal prosecutors said.

Giang was charged Tuesday in U.S. District Court in San Jose with wire fraud and misuse of a Social Security number.
