Mashama Ferdinand, a 38-year-old resident of St. Thomas, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to wire fraud affecting a financial institution, U.S. Attorney Gretchen C.F. Shappert announced in a news release issued Tuesday.
According to court documents, on July 30, 2020, Ferdinand filed a Paycheck Protection Program - known as PPP - loan application on behalf of her company, Shama's Specialties. The application fraudulently alleged that she employed 15 employees who earned a quarterly payroll of $460,079.82. Evidence developed in this investigation revealed that Ferdinand's business did not have the purported 15 employees, nor the quarterly payroll that she claimed in her loan application, Shappert said.
