Yes, but only according to blogs and factoid sites. This still requires a citation, however:
Islamic groups have sometimes used financial inducement to encourage Muslim women to wear hijab. Some French Muslim families, have reportedly been paid 500 euros per quarter in return for hijab use by their daughters.
