A former Massachusetts pizza shop owner is accused of using illegally obtained federal coronavirus relief funds to buy an alpaca farm, federal prosecutors said.
Dana McIntyre, 57, who used to own Rasta Pasta Pizzeria in the city of Beverly, received a $600,000 loan by allegedly lying about his number of employees and falsifying an official tax form, according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston.

I wonder how rampant this is?

The dream of owning an Alpaca farm? I don’t think it’s too rampant.
Hey, Alpaca’s don’t raise themselves and everyone likes a good sweater.
Some of us prefer alpaca on our pizza instead of pepperoni. This is completely legit. Nothing to see here.
the first round of PPP was almost completely unregulated. The idea was - get money out into businesses any way possible and as quickly as possible
The second round was more stringent, with more requirements on the banks administering the loans to document requests for PPP money.
With a name like Rasta, bet that’s not all he bought
In virtually every single country where they did business loans like this....scams were commonplace.
Everything even remotely related to the government is full of fraud.
lol
Surely, you can’t be serious about owning an Alpaca farm?

I am serious. And don’t call me Shirley.
Pelosi made millions just in Amazon stock she got in January 2020. The scamdemic followed. Bezos made billions. Those are the ones to go to jail.
Come’on man, the pizza guy was just doing his bit to save the world.
