Two family members in Myrtle Beach, S.C. were recently sentenced for stealing stimulus checks and robbing the government of $500,000 via failing inaccurate tax returns, according to a statement from the U.S. Department of Justice.
Donna Karakatsani was sentenced to two years in prison, while her son Ivo Krasimirov Ivanov got 1.5 years in prison. His step-father Todor Milkov Stoenchev received five years of probation, according toTheir sentences come after the IRS started investigating them in 2020. Karakatsani and Ivanov used foreign people’s names — mostly from Bulgaria — to file tax returns.
“Our nation went through one of the most challenging virus outbreaks in recent memory and one of our Government’s responses was establishing the CARES Act to lessen the economic impact on its citizens,” said Michael Speckhardt, Special Agent in Charge of the Office of the Inspector General, reported. “Unfortunately, the Defendants saw this as an opportunity to enrich themselves through a fraud scheme for which they were caught.”
