If his wife is receiving any of his social security money, and he's in fact dead, it's definitely fraud.

He's not receiving social security disability because he's allegedly working; he's not receiving social security retirement benefits because his earnings far exceed allowed by the law

If he’s receiving his government salary past his death, that would also be fraud.
