DOJ Press Release: Calaveras County Man Sentenced for COVID-19 Paycheck Protection Program Fraud
An Amtrak train attendant based in Miami, Florida, signed a civil settlement agreement on May 13, 2024, with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of Florida. The employee was ordered to pay $10,000 in restitution and a $5,000 penalty. Our investigation found that the employee submitted a false claim for an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) Advance of $10,000. We interviewed the employee and he admitted to receiving the EIDL Advance for a non-existent catering business. As a result, the employee received an EIDL loan advance in the amount of $10,000 to which he was not entitled.
The Office of Inspector General retained the services of KPMG, an independent public accounting firm, to determine whether the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) was in compliance with the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 (PIIA) (Public Law 116-117) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023. This evaluation was performed in accordance with the Council of Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency’s Quality Standards for Inspection and Evaluation.
