U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance U.S. Communities in engaged in fraud, corruption and overcharging in concert with Office Depot government contracts Nationwide

Office Depot and U.S. Communities have engaged in kickbacks, fraud overcharging, mis-representation of pricing, and ground zero for this national scandal is Walnut Creek (CA).
What really goes on at U.S. Communities and who are the shadowy figures that enrich themselves at this murky organization? How are they tied to the $100 million in annual alleged overcharges by Office Depot?

On the state level, the National Office Products Alliance (NOPA), an independent office products trade association, issued a press release a few weeks ago urging the the California Attorney General to look specifically at Office Depot's Walnut Creek-based US Communities contracts, which they allege resulted in "kickbacks" perhaps exceeding $20 million. A representative from US Communities said that these allegations are false, and clarified that the nonprofit -- which matches public entities with the cheapest office supply deals -- receives just one to two percent of the sales price from the vendors (including Office Depot, among others) to cover their administrative costs.
