Residents receive $100 checks from Elon Musk's America PAC regardless of petition status

Pennsylvania residents who signed Elon Musk’s America PAC petition for free speech and gun rights are receiving $100 checks. However, some individuals, like Jeanne Fermier, report getting checks despite not signing the petition, raising concerns about data misuse. Fermier, a registered voter, filed a complaint after receiving a check she did not expect. Experts clarify that while signing the petition for payment is legal, signing someone else's name without consent constitutes fraud against the PAC, not election fraud. Those who receive checks but did not sign the petition are advised not to cash them. The America PAC has not responded to inquiries about the fraud reports.
