Meta employees - stories of media support portal abuse?

For those who aren’t aware, the Meta media support portal is a hub of sorts containing forms, only accessible by media partners. It allows media partners to escalate requests like verifications, username claims, and even quick support for hacked accounts, across Facebook and Instagram. There are 4 verticals, entertainment (think record labels), sports (athlete management companies), news (news/media sites), and ‘other’ (anyone who’s a partner not within those previous categories - big creators etc). It is no secret that there’s a black market for verifications and portals are often revoked from partners for these reasons. However, I’m interested in knowing - Meta employees have you ever heard of an employee getting fired for abuse of their portal/support access? Employee media support portals can submit for a wider category of requests than partners, and typically see a greater success rate with their requests given their position. It seems particularly with the elusive check mark there’s a big incentive there for a couple of sneaky requests a month that go unnoticed that could quite literally double employees salaries, and I’m sure this does happen. Heard many stories but of course none of this is ever confirmed.
