Aisha Jackson, a 34-year-old woman from Pflugerville, Texas, has been sentenced to 21 months in federal prison for defrauding the Paycheck Protection Loan (PPP) program. On March 10, 2021, Jackson submitted a fake PPP application to a loan processor, using a stolen social security number and fabricated documents. She received $16,628 in PPP loan funds just five days later.
Jackson’s scheme didn’t stop there. Less than two weeks later, she submitted another fake PPP loan application, this time using a different business name, WCS Consulting. She used the same stolen social security number to open a bank account and provided false financial documents, including a fake 2019 Schedule C. Jackson received a total of $43,980 in fraudulent PPP loans.
According to court documents, Jackson used the stolen social security number of a minor victim to open bank accounts and obtain loans. She also provided false financial documents, including fake Schedule C forms, to support her loan applications. Jackson’s actions resulted in a significant loss to the US Government, and her sentence reflects the severity of her crimes.
The investigation and prosecution of Jackson’s case demonstrate the commitment of law enforcement agencies to combating PPP loan fraud. The US Department of Justice and other agencies are working tirelessly to identify and hold accountable individuals who engage in such schemes.
