I had to leave my job because of fraud

I started working for a third party cellphone company just over a year ago, I moved to a few different stores at first because a lot of the managers didn't train people properly, when I finally found a store that would work for me I had a boss who was over just one store not several and with the company they made it seem like it was my last chance. I started selling phones really well having a background in selling laptops and actually understanding technology it came easy to me. At this point I didn't really know what was going on, just that my boss knew the WARP system REALLY well, and after he had been there 5 or more years it made sense. I finally caught onto the fraud when one of my coworkers started explaining that the system allows you to run someone for a soft credit…


I started working for a third party cellphone company just over a year ago, I moved to a few different stores at first because a lot of the managers didn't train people properly, when I finally found a store that would work for me I had a boss who was over just one store not several and with the company they made it seem like it was my last chance. I started selling phones really well having a background in selling laptops and actually understanding technology it came easy to me. At this point I didn't really know what was going on, just that my boss knew the WARP system REALLY well, and after he had been there 5 or more years it made sense. I finally caught onto the fraud when one of my coworkers started explaining that the system allows you to run someone for a soft credit check, with an expired ID… you just have to put in some date in the future instead of the one ON their ID. I told my coworker it was wrong and it's a felony to do such a thing since he also told me with the tablet T mobile gave us we can put in any number into the social security field and it would accept it and any ID number we wanted as long as it started with the states abbreviation (WDL) but I was the only one turning customers away with the expired ID and doing things by the book. I quickly realized my boss was in on it as well and every day he would try to gaslight me into believing it wasn't fraud or wrong. Before this I had become close friends with my supervisor (couple friends) with him and his wife being friends with me and my wife. As things progressed i tried reporting this to my supervisor (unknowing at the time he was the one supporting and encouraging the fraud) and his supervisor and then human resources the workplace environment increasingly became more hostile as I reported the coworker I thought was behind it ( for context my coworker let's call him Phil and his significant other both worked for this company at different stores but with the same company) I made the mistake of reporting Phil's significant other for fraud and Phil threatened me that he would kill me if she lost her job over it so again I reported this to my supervisor and his supervisor and human resources and nothing happened. When I found out that my boss I had become close friends with was TRAINING the new hires to do this fraud and to look the other way. I sent one last email to human resources condoning their lack of action and participation in the coverup of federal crimes and put in my two week notice, my job was off of commission and my former supervisor did everything he could to try and delay or interfere with my paycheck but after I got my last one I didn't come back and they won't be asking me back.
