Charlie Javice convicted of defrauding JPMorgan during sale of financial aid startup Frank

The founder of a startup company that claimed to be revolutionizing the way college students apply for financial aid has been convicted of defrauding JPMorgan Chase out of $175 million. Prosecutors said Charlie Javice tricked the bank by saying her company, Frank, had more than 4 million customers when it actually had served as few as 300,000. A jury in New York City returned its verdict on Friday after a five-week trial. Javice, who is 32, faces the possibility of a lengthy prison term. Her lawyer said JPMorgan made up the fraud allegations because it had buyer’s remorse after a regulatory change made Frank’s customer data less valuable.
