FUEL CARD MISUSE

We initiated an investigation into allegations that an Amtrak Engineering and Traction Lineman was misusing a government fleet fuel card assigned to an Amtrak-leased vehicle to purchase fuel for his personal vehicles. The investigation disclosed that between April 29, 2015 and November 3, 2015, the employee used the fuel card to purchase fuel for two of his personal vehicles. The approximate loss associated with alleged misuse of the fleet card is $5,776. On November 3, 2015, the employee retired and is ineligible for rehire.
