Entertainers, CEOs among 19 indicted in Georgia on PPP fraud charges

In each case, the defendants are accused of submitting falsified versions of IRS Form 941 to an approved PPP lender. The form is the Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return and is used to report taxes withheld from employees’ paychecks and to pay the employer’s portion of Social Security and Medicare.

According to the indictments, the defendants would collaborate with Mason to produce fake versions of past Form 941 documents showing falsified payroll numbers. In reality, authorities said the documents had never been filed with the IRS and that Mason would allegedly submit the loan applications through a non-bank lender that updated its homepage with a “Fraud Alert” warning.

One case involves a defendant who worked as an employee for the IRS, according to the indictment. Melissa Myrick, of Florida, a Supervisory Individual Tax Advisory Specialist, is accused of providing Mason with signed PPP loan applications that were missing figures for the number of employees, average monthly payroll or requested loan amount. After discussing those figures with Myrick and other defendants, Mason would supply the agreed-upon numbers, the indictment said.

According to his LinkedIn page, Mason is the vice president of customer operations in North America for a business video conferencing company called Unytalk, in addition to being president of Atlanta Business Capital. He claims previous experience with several companies where he worked in business development and as a wholesale mortgage broker.

Mason was a running back for the University of Maryland’s football team, where he saw significant playing time all four years from 1990-1993, according to sports-reference.com. He ran for more than 1,800 yards and scored nine touchdowns during his career.

Because Mason and his businesses are based in Atlanta, all 19 defendants were charged by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Northern District of Georgia. The businesses named in the lawsuits are located all over the country, from California to New Jersey.

The full list of those indicted includes:

  • David Burge, of Tennessee, CEO and president of Elemental Comfort LLC;
  • Gina Destito, of California, owner of HomePoppins.com LLC;
  • Jim White, of New Jersey, owner of AJW Home Services and Design LLC;
  • Richard Mahee, of New Jersey, owner and president of ARG Media LLC;

  • Ion Overman, of California, owner of Bryanston Square Inc;
  • Michael McGee Jr., of Georgia, owner of Arc Michael Logistics LLC;
  • Marcos Soza, of Arizona, owner of Yes Auto Sales Inc;
  • Melissa Myrick, of Florida, employee with the IRS;

He was one of two men shot inside an SUV at a Chevron on the corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and Peyton Road, according to Atlanta police. Both of the victims were outside the vehicle when the first officers arrived shortly after 5:30 a.m. Capt. Dorian Graham, APD’s night commander, said investigators don’t know who shot the men as they don’t have any credible witnesses. “We think that the males were sitting inside of the vehicle and then somebody came by and shot it up,” he told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution from the scene. “Like I said, right now we don’t know why. The investigation is still very, very preliminary.” Investigators were gathering evidence Thursday morning. Their work appeared to be focused on a black Dodge Durango with its windows shot out. Articles of clothing, including a lone sneaker, were on the ground beside the vehicle. A black handgun was also photographed at the scene. Graham said it looked like both victims were shot multiple times. “It looked like one was shot in the lower extremities, and it looked like another one was shot in the upper part of the body,” he said. The man who was critically injured was stable before he was loaded into an ambulance and taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, he said. The other was also taken to Grady, and his injuries were less severe. According to a police spokesman, one of the shooting victims was arrested on an outstanding warrant for failure to appear in court. A third person who was not injured was arrested at the scene on a charge of possession of stolen property. None of their names were released. Investigators don’t know what the wounded men were doing at the gas station. They are trying to track down any available surveillance footage from the parking lot and the surrounding area, Graham said.
