Former Dentist Sentenced For COVID Fraud

(Portland, OR) -- A former Oregon dentist has been sentenced to nearly six years in federal prison for stealing pandemic relief funds. Federal prosecutors say 44-year-old Salwan Wesam Adjaj, of West Linn, submitted dozens of fraudulent loan applications to the SBA for Economic Impact Disaster Loans. He stole identities from over 40 victims and caused the SBA to pay out more than eleven-million-dollars in loans, grants, and lender fees. He pleaded guilty and was also ordered to pay more than ten-and-a-half-million-dollars in restitution to the Small Business Administration.
