Kentucky moving companies Lynn Moving and Storage, Inc., Shadowens Moving and Storage Company, Inc., and E-Town Moving and storage, Inc., along with their individual owners, agreed to pay roughly $265,000 for violating the False Claims Act by systematically overbilling the United States Army for shipping costs associated with deploying and/or relocating United States Service personnel. According to the government, the companies caused false, inflated weight tickets to be created to increase the weight of the shipments and the amount of payment to the companies by the military.
