Why is it a scam to take leave without pay?
FYI...I told my manager exactly what I wanted to do and received full approval. She knew that I would not be returning to the office...once I turned 55 I went back on strength (I had saved 1 vacation day) and immediately retired. I also had to send an email to my manager officially requesting the time off and also complete a form that outlined the guidelines and expectations. At the appropriate time I met my supervisor one day for lunch to sign retirement papers.
Obviously it’s not a scam in Canada but as the prior poster stated it’s not allowed in the US and a person would have to “lie” to accomplish a leave prior to retirement in the US.
