[quote=Anonymous]As one might expect, your Federal government proudly tracks and reports on their success in prosecuting bankruptcy crimes.  According the the 2021  US Trustee Annual Report:

In FY 2021, the Program made 2,244 bankruptcy and bankruptcy-related criminal referrals. The Program works with its federal and state law enforcement partners and participates in approximately 50 local bankruptcy fraud working groups and other specialized task forces throughout the country. Nearly two dozen Program attorneys are designated as Special
Assistant U.S. Attorneys to assist USAOs in the prosecution of bankruptcy and bankruptcy related crimes. In addition, many other staff— including attorneys, bankruptcy analysts, and
paralegals—are often called upon to assist with investigations and to provide expert or fact witness testimony at criminal trials. In FY 2021, the Program also responded to more than
200 requests for assistance from USAOs, the FBI, and other law enforcement agencies on matters not originating from a USTP referral.

PANDEMIC-RELATED CRIMES
Among the FY 2021 referrals were 66 matters related to wrongdoing under the CARES Act, including Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans. Regulations implementing the law
specifically excluded debtors in bankruptcy from eligibility to receive PPP loans; however, these debtor applicants either were approved for loans based on alleged false statements on their loan applications that they were not a debtor in bankruptcy or they used PPP funds they received for improper purposes.

This is their job, I am sure they can spot things that we don't see.
