I’m also interested in verifying this. Unfortunately, the article you linked to references young people getting sba loans not social security payments. It then repeats old news about very old people getting social security benefits.
IIRC the “150 year olds” in those records has to do with how computers handle dates post Y2K. I remember some programmers chiming in when that story broke. It’s not actually fraud but a fix to handle certain pre 1980 dates in older computer systems.
