Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has made a stunning discovery: millions of dollars in unemployment payouts have been issued to individuals who don’t even exist—some of whom haven’t technically been born yet.

Among the most ridiculous examples cited was one case where someone born in the year 2154 was able to fraudulently obtain $41,000, the department reported in a post on X.
