the exact wording is:

"Yeah, I get unemployment compensation, so my bills are covered there.
I'm working for money to move. I want to move to Vegas soon and I need
back up money, money to move, etc."

what is meant exactly by "compensation"?!

I don't know the laws and stuff in USA exactly

but it might not be a benefit paid by the government, but could be
unemployment insurance?! or anyway, various other options going on
there

that was all that was said, so very scanty information to work on

so very possibly nothing illegal is going on
