Simmons for the Western District of Texas. According to court documents, on March 10, 2021, Aisha Jackson, 34, doing business as Logo Boosters, submitted a PPP application to a loan processor. The application contained false statements and documentation, including a fabricated voided check stub. Federal agents found that Jackson had opened the bank account reflected on the check stub in her own name but used the stolen social security number of a minor victim. Bank records showed that no checks were written from the account. Further investigation revealed that Jackson used the same victim’s social security number in 2016 to obtain a vehicle loan. Agents also found that Jackson had submitted a false 2019 Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business, using the business name Logo Boosters, and listing nearly $80,000 in net profit. Jackson did not file a 2019 Form 1040. Jackson received the PPP load deposit of $16,628 on March 15, 2021. Less than two weeks later, on March 24, 2021, Jackson dba WCS Consulting, submitted another PPP loan application containing false statements and documentation. A review of Jackson’s bank records showed Jackson did not open the bank account until March 16, 2021, and used the same social security number belonging to a minor to open the account. As with her business, Logo Boosters, Jackson provided a false 2019 Schedule C with the business name WCS Consulting, listing a net profit of $53,900, and she did not file a 2019 Form 1040. Jackson completed and signed a PPP Loan Forgiveness Application Form on Oct. 5, 2021, indicating that she had complied with all requirements of the PPP rules. The total loss to the U.S. Government amounted to $43,980 over three PPP loans received by Jackson.
