Any person who shall knowingly make any false statement, or who shall falsify or permit to be falsified any record necessary for carrying out the intent of this act for the purpose of committing fraud, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine not exceeding Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) or by imprisonment for not exceeding one (1) year. Should any error in any records of the Oklahoma Public Employees Retirement System result in any member or beneficiary receiving more or less than he would have been entitled to receive had the records been correct, the Board shall correct such error, and, as far as practicable, make future payments in such manner that the actuarial equivalent of the benefit to which such member or beneficiary was entitled shall be paid, and to this end may recover any overpayments. The agency shall charge interest on any overpayments in an amount not to exceed the actuarially assumed interest rate adopted by the Board for investment earnings each year. Interest charges may be waived upon the approval of the Executive Director.
