NEW YORK (TIP): A Queens couple scammed the city out of more than $35,000 by faking attendance records at their publicly funded day-care program, the special schools investigator announced September 18.
Nareesa and Saied Mohammed overbilled the city roughly $3,500 for each of about a dozen kids at the Beanstalk and Nareesa’s Day Care programs between 2009 and 2011, the investigation revealed.
The findings were sent September 18 to the Queens District Attorney for possible criminal prosecution.
Education Department officials discontinued working with the two day-care operators last year.
