(Indianapolis, IN) - Indiana's attorney general says his lawsuit against a handful of online schools is one of the biggest fraud cases in state history.

Attorney General Todd Rokita Monday sued the Indiana Virtual School, Indiana Virtual Pathways Academy, Indiana Virtual Educational Foundation and several other related schools or companies for over $150 million.

Rokita says the school operators inflated enrollment numbers to scam the state out of nearly $70 million.

The lawsuit also claims the schools improperly paid people at the top of the operation through a series of bills that were never detailed or properly submitted. That total is $85 million.

Rokita says the schools tried to pull-off a massive pattern of fraud for years.
