"The EDD says it is working to verify the identities of people who made claims and many remain under investigation"

It's identity fraud. (Entirely because of the tragic state of US [and global] privacy and state-citizen communication culture.)

It's not people taking advantage of welfare and deciding to not look for work. It's career criminals.

I agree that it's career criminals, many of whom are even overseas. The problem is that these agencies have to be able to distinguish legitimate vs. fraudulent claims, and sometimes the processes they come up for doing this could be described as "jumping through hoops."
