U.S. attorney charges man with COVID loan fraud

The U.S. attorney has charged a man with bank fraud in connection with a nearly $100,000 loan his business received under a program designed to help keep businesses’ workforces employed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Rafael Maturino, 40, was charged Wednesday in Tulsa federal court with bank fraud related to a loan he applied for on behalf of a business that he claimed to own and operate, according to the charge.
The fraud charge alleges Maturino on April 28 sought a Paycheck Protection Program loan for Maturino Enterprises Inc. at First National Bank of Owasso.
“The (Paycheck Protection Program) was developed to ease the pain of COVID-19 economic restraints on working Americans,” said U.S. Attorney Trent Shores, in a statement. “This defendant is alleged to have applied for a PPP loan under false pretenses.”
