Absolutely. That is defrauding the FoodStamp Program which is a Federal offense and punishable by a $250,000 fine and up to 25 years in prison. It carries the most harsh penalties of all the wellfare programs because the government has spent a lot of time and money trying to prevent it. I would advise against it.
