According to the crime of fraud, the judicial interpretation of the crime of fraud stipulated by the Supreme Court is huge. Those who return the stolen money may be given a lighter punishment. However, defrauding poverty alleviation funds is a felony, and even if it is given a lighter punishment, the lighter degree will not be great. Article 266 of the Criminal Law: whoever defrauds public or private property in a relatively large amount shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also or only be fined; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined or confiscated.
