Contractor Pleads Guilty to Stealing from U.S. Postal Service

Gregory Rehberg, 55, of Atlanta, Georgia, pleaded guilty today to wire fraud for stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) through false invoices. Rehberg, operating through his company, GLR Group LLC., submitted inflated invoices to EMCOR Facilities Services, Inc., which was contracted to oversee maintenance and construction work at USPS locations across multiple states.

According to Acting U.S. Attorney Richard S. Moultrie, Jr., Rehberg concealed the use of subcontractors, made false statements, and provided false documents to overcharge USPS for maintenance work that was never performed. Over a span of five years, Rehberg submitted nearly 900 fraudulent invoices, resulting in approximately $2.9 million in payments. Of this, he overbilled USPS by more than $730,000 by marking up the prices on his invoices by as much as forty percent.

Rehberg’s actions targeted postal service locations in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina. His company was contracted by EMCOR, but instead of performing the work himself, Rehberg subcontracted the labor at lower rates and inflated the charges on the invoices submitted to EMCOR.

Executive Special Agent in Charge Kenneth Cleevely of the USPS Office of Inspector General (OIG) emphasized the commitment to pursuing those involved in fraudulent activities aimed at exploiting the Postal Service’s repair and maintenance programs.

Sentencing for Gregory Rehberg is scheduled for May 15, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. before Chief United States District Judge Timothy C. Batten, Sr.

The case was investigated by the USPS Office of Inspector General. Assistant United States Attorney Natasha Cooper is prosecuting the case.
