FCC Suspends Seven Convicted of Fraud from E-Rate Program
On April 16, 2025, the FCC suspended seven individuals who were convicted of fraud related to their participation in the E-Rate program. From around 2010 to 2016, corporations controlled by these individuals requested over $35 million and received over $14 million in E-Rate funds, but they did not provide much of the equipment for which they billed the federal government. The FCC’s Enforcement Bureau suspended each individual from further participation in the E-Rate program and began proceedings to ban them from participation in the future.
