If they failed to disclose assets on purpose in their bankruptcy they are committing bankruptcy fraud and should be reported to the US Trustee.

Yes, it may be bankruptcy fraud however this does not sound like a lot of money is involved. Additionally, a Chapter 13 does involve paying back the creditors.
