Charlie Javice, a 32-year-old fintech entrepreneur once celebrated for founding the student aid platform Frank, has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison after a US federal court found her guilty of defrauding JPMorgan Chase in its $175 million (£130 million) acquisition of her company. The case, which unfolded in Manhattan, exposed fabricated user data that prosecutors said misled one of the world's largest banks.
