Santos has reportedly been accused of fraudulently filing campaign reports and receiving unemployment benefits and filing, lying on congressional disclosure forms, and stealing campaign funds from supporters.

The House Ethics Committee concluded Santos committed federal crimes and violated the ethics of Congress, reporting "substantial evidence" of wrongdoing and that he engaged in personal purchases, including Botox treatment and luxury shopping sprees, using campaign funds.
