Dead woman receives stimulus check
Dead woman receives stimulus check
Quote:
Millions of Americans on Social Security are receiving $250 checks as part of the president’s stimulus plan — including an Anne Arundel woman who’s dead.
The woman’s son, 83-year-old James Hagner, said his mother has been dead for more than 40 years.
That didn’t stop her from getting a stimulus check though.
“It shocked me and I laughed all at the same time and I told her how in the world could they ever do this?” Hagner said. “I don’t even expect to get one for myself and I get one for my mother from 43 years ago ‘Kind of strange right’ Yes sir.”
Social Security representatives said there is a good explanation. Of the about 52 million checks that have been mailed out, about 10,000 of those have been sent to people who are deceased.
