Hotline / Contacts

The Hotline is a confidential reporting mechanism operated by the OIG that provides current and former GPO employees, vendors, and the general public with an important avenue for reporting allegations of fraud, waste, abuse, and/or mismanagement related to GPO programs, operations, and personnel. If you suspect that a rule or law that impacts GPO in anyway is being--or has been—violated, you are strongly encouraged to contact the Hotline.

How to File a Complaint or Contact the Hotline

We prefer that you file a complaint using the Online Complaint Form. The form can be filled out and submitted online or printed, filled out at a later time, and submitted via e-mail, by telephone (800.743.7574), by fax (202.512.1352), or by U.S. Mail using the address:

Confidentiality – In accordance with the GPO Inspector General Act of 1988 and Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, the identity of all individuals who file a complaint with the OIG will remain confidential and not disclosed to anyone outside of the OIG without the consent of the individual complainant, or if “the Inspector General determines such disclosure is unavoidable during the course of the investigation.”

Anonymity – The OIG will accept and review anonymous complaints; however, the ability to fully address the content of the complaint may be seriously degraded without the ability to contact the complainant for further information or clarification, if deemed necessary.
