=== Mail-scan fraud === In February 2021, United Airlines was fined $49 million by the [[United States Department of Justice]] on charges of fraud on postal service contracts for transportation of international mail. According to investigators, between 2012 and 2015 United submitted delivery scan data to make it appear that United and its partner airlines complied with International Commercial Air requirements with accurate delivery times when in fact they were automated delivery scans with aspirational delivery time. Some employees within United worked to hide this fact from the [[United States Postal Service]].<ref>{{DoJ}}{{Cite web |date=February 26, 2021 |title=United Airlines to Pay $49 Million to Resolve Criminal Fraud Charges and Civil Claims |url=https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-airlines-pay-49-million-resolve-criminal-fraud-charges-and-civil-claims |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210301210602/https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-airlines-pay-49-million-resolve-criminal-fraud-charges-and-civil-claims |archive-date=March 1, 2021 |access-date=March 2, 2021 |website=www.justice.gov |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Snyder |first=Tanya |title=United agrees to $49M fine for mail scan fraud |url=https://www.politico.com/news/2021/02/26/united-49-million-mail-fraud-471760 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210303175611/https://www.politico.com/news/2021/02/26/united-49-million-mail-fraud-471760 |archive-date=March 3, 2021 |access-date=March 2, 2021 |website=POLITICO |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Dabaie |first=Michael |date=February 26, 2021 |title=United Airlines Agrees to Pay $49 Million to Resolve Mail-Related Charges |language=en-US |work=[[The Wall Street Journal]] |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/united-airlines-agrees-to-pay-49-million-to-resolve-mail-related-charges-11614373479 |url-status=live |access-date=March 2, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210302150614/https://www.wsj.com/articles/united-airlines-agrees-to-pay-49-million-to-resolve-mail-related-charges-11614373479 |archive-date=March 2, 2021 |issn=0099-9660}}</ref>
