Gregory Rehberg, a business owner from Norcross, Georgia, has admitted to wire fraud charges for defrauding the U.S. Postal Service through false invoices. Acting U.S. Attorney Richard S. Moultrie, Jr. stated that Rehberg "concealed the use of subcontractors, made false statements, and provided false documents to overcharge the U.S. Postal Service for maintenance work he never performed." Moultrie emphasized the commitment of his office to prosecute individuals who exploit government contracts for personal gain.
Kenneth Cleevely, Executive Special Agent in Charge of the USPS Office of Inspector General (OIG), praised the investigation's outcome and reiterated that "Special Agents of the USPS OIG will continue to aggressively investigate those who would engage in fraudulent activities designed to defraud the Postal Service."
The court heard that Rehberg's company, GLR Group LLC., was contracted by EMCOR Facilities Services, Inc. for repairs and construction at various U.S. Postal Service locations across several states including Georgia and Florida. However, Rehberg submitted inflated invoices for services purportedly rendered by GLR but actually completed by subcontractors at lower rates.
Rehberg reportedly marked up invoice prices by as much as forty percent and submitted nearly 900 invoices between 2019 and 2024. This resulted in payments totaling approximately $2.9 million with an overbilling amount exceeding $730,000.
Sentencing is set for May 15, 2025 before Chief United States District Judge Timothy C. Batten Sr., with Assistant United States Attorney Natasha Cooper prosecuting the case.
The investigation is being conducted by the United States Postal Service Office of Inspector General.
