Question
If there is evidence of a 501c3 organization being in violation, what is the procedure and to whom is information filed for action?
Complaints could go to your State's Attorney General's Office as
that office generally oversees charities within the state. If the
action is criminal then your local district attorney may be
interested in prosecuting as at:
