Kansas City 女子认罪骗取20,832美元 PPP 贷款：虚报零售生意年收入10万美元
美国司法部密苏里州西区联邦检察官办公室2026年10月27日宣布，密苏里州 Kansas City 市33岁居民 Dezhon Byrd 当天承认一项电信诈骗罪，承认以虚假信息骗取一笔20,832美元的薪资保护计划（PPP）贷款。
检方表示，Byrd 自称是一家零售生意的独资经营者，于2021年4月4日提交 PPP 贷款申请，谎称该生意2020年总收入为10万美元；法庭文件显示，她并未经营一家有此年收入的生意。基于虚假陈述，2021年4月21日，20,832美元贷款被转入她的银行账户。这笔贷款由美国小企业局（SBA）依据《CARES法案》提供担保。
按联邦法律，Byrd 最高可面临20年不得假释的联邦监禁，具体刑期将在联邦量刑指南与呈报前调查完成后由法庭决定。此案是司法部国家反欺诈执法部门、小企业局及其监察长办公室联合开展的全国性 PPP 诈骗执法行动「Operation No Doze」的成果之一，由小企业局监察长办公室调查，联邦助理检察官 Paul S. Becker 负责起诉。
Kansas City Woman Pleads Guilty to $20,832 Paycheck Protection Program Fraud
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Missouri announced on October 27, 2026, that Dezhon Byrd, 33, of Kansas City, Missouri, pleaded guilty to wire fraud in a scheme to fraudulently obtain a $20,832 Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the CARES Act.
Prosecutors said Byrd claimed to be the sole proprietor of a retail business and, on April 4, 2021, submitted a PPP application falsely stating the business had 2020 gross receipts of $100,000. Court documents show she did not operate a business with that annual revenue. Based on the fraudulent representations, $20,832 was transferred to her bank account on April 21, 2021.
Byrd faces up to 20 years in federal prison without parole; the actual sentence will be determined by the court after a presentence investigation. The case is part of Operation No Doze, a nationwide PPP fraud enforcement action led by the Justice Department's National Fraud Enforcement Division, the SBA and the SBA Office of Inspector General, which investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul S. Becker is prosecuting.
