Fraud Hotline Reports

The Auditor-Controller-Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Internal Audit Division (IAD) operates the Sonoma County Fraud Hotline. Pursuant to the Board of Supervisors approved Fraud Guidelines, IAD investigates or refers out allegations of financial fraud, waste and abuse of resources. IAD refers allegations that are outside the scope of the Fraud, Waste and Abuse Hotline Program to other departments, agencies or hotline programs as applicable.

For complaints within the scope of the Program, IAD tracks and compiles the results of Fraud Hotline investigations referred to and conducted by other County departments. On this page you will find reports which summarize the investigations concerning allegations of fraud, waste, and abuse of resources, statistical summaries and disciplinary and/or corrective actions imposed.
