   These COVID crooks are getting a jab of justice.   
      
   Nearly $100 billion of COVID relief funds has been defrauded   
   across the United States since the pandemic began, the Secret   
   Service announced Tuesday, adding that there are almost 1,000   
   separate investigations into these startling financial frauds.   
      
   Two high profile athletes have already been cuffed for the   
   crime: US Olympic speedskater Allison Marie Baver is accused of   
   ripping off $10 million, as well as former New York Jets wide   
   receiver and onetime millionaire Kenbrell Thompkins, whose   
   damages are in the hundreds of thousands.   
      
   There have also been plenty of “average Joe” perps getting   
   busted after spending their lavish relief dough on trivial   
   purchases, such as flashy cars or rare, five-figure Pokémon   
   cards (both true, real examples, sadly). Gotta catch ’em all,   
   right?   
      
   A group of deceitful dingbats in Brooklyn were even found out   
   after posing online with some $2 million of ill-begotten relief   
   funds.   
      
   Read on for the most ridiculous, and egregious, COVID relief   
   scammers that have been caught — so far.   
      
   The ice is getting awfully thin for this former Olympic   
   speedskater.   
      
   The 41-year-old Baver — who medaled with the US women’s 3,000-   
   meter relay team during the 2010 Vancouver games — was brought   
   up last week on money laundering charges and eight counts of   
   making a false statement to a bank after allegedly defrauding an   
   estimated $10 million of COVID funds, according to the US   
   Attorney’s Office for the District of Utah. She applied for   
   eight Paycheck Protection Program loans in April 2020, seeking   
   the $10 million for her production company, Allison Baver   
   Entertainment, which she founded in 2019, two years into her   
   skating retirement.   
      
   Baver allegedly BS’d the government into believing she had a   
   monthly payroll of $4.7M, whereas she actually had none at all,   
   according to court documents. She also claimed to have employed   
   between 100 and 430 people, which the feds are alleging to be   
   phony.   
      
   Baver also transferred $150,000 to another production company,   
   behind the August-released Ted Bundy film “No Man of God,” a   
   film she cameoed in, KTSU reported.   
      
   Prosecutors are aiming to make Baver forfeit about $9.7 million   
   of her funds. She could also do 40 years in prison if convicted   
   on all counts, according to KTSU. She is due for arraignment on   
   Jan. 18, 2022.   
      
   New York Jet Kenbrell Thompkins   
      
   Looks like he dropped the ball on this one.   
      
   Former Jets wide receiver Kenbrell Thompkins pled guilty to one   
   count of unauthorized access device fraud — the theft of banking   
   or credit cards — and one count of aggravated identity fraud   
   last October. He allegedly stole the identities of several   
   Florida residents to apply for COVID unemployment benefits while   
   in California. Thompkins was then awarded $300,000 in debit   
   cards under false pretenses, which were sent to a South Florida   
   address he was using, according to the Associated Press.   
      
   The AP also reported that he withdrew about $230,000 of those   
   funds at various ATMs in Miami-Dade County. Thompkins — who   
   spent an uneventful 2015 season with Gang Green — is scheduled   
   to be sentenced on Jan. 6 and faces up to 12 years in prison.   
      
   Brooklyn man busted after spending $2M on flashy cars   
      
   Living life in the fast lane doesn’t always take you where you   
   want to go.   
      
   Leon Miles, a 51-year-old Brooklyn man, was arrested for   
   collecting about $2 million in PPP funds that allegedly fueled   
   his lust for luxury cars, according to federal prosecutors.   
      
   After the forgivable loan of $1,904,593 hit Miles’ personal bank   
   account, he withdrew hundreds of thousands in the upcoming days,   
   spending $250,000 on a 2020 white Bentley Continental that he   
   posed with on Instagram and $100,000 on a 2020 Cadillac   
   Escalade, the prosecution alleged.   
      
   The loan was approved after Miles claimed that he had a monthly   
   payroll of $768,838, used to employ 50 people through his   
   company 114 Macon LLC, court papers indicated.   
      
   In reality, Miles had no taxable income, his company hadn’t   
   filed a single tax return, and reported no wage payments in   
   2019. The listed address for the alleged business was also that   
   of his home, the documents revealed.   
      
   If convicted, Miles could do 30 years in the slammer.

   The lifelong advice of “be careful what you post on social   
   media” has come back to bite these Brooklyn buddies.
