Three individuals in Texas have been charged with submitting fraudulent applications for Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) and Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, which were established to assist businesses and individuals impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The defendants are accused of falsifying information to obtain millions of dollars in loans from the Small Business Administration (SBA).

The charges include manipulating business details, inflating payroll expenses, and misrepresenting the number of employees to qualify for larger loans.

If convicted, the defendants could face up to 20 years in prison.

The EIDL and PPP programs were introduced to provide financial support to businesses and individuals struggling during the economic downturn caused by the pandemic.

The SBA was tasked with processing a large volume of loan applications, some of which were targeted by fraudulent schemes.

This case is part of a broader federal effort to investigate and prosecute fraud related to pandemic relief funds.

The exact amount of money involved in this case has not been disclosed, but authorities indicate it totals millions of dollars. The investigation is ongoing.
