A Nigerian man has been sentenced to eight years in prison for a series of fraud, hacking, and identity theft offenses. Beginning in 2019, Chukwuemeka Amachukwu and his co conspirators carried out a scheme targeting U.S.-based tax preparation businesses. They used spearphishing emails to break into these firms’ systems, stealing sensitive customer information. With this compromised PII, the conspirators filed fraudulent tax returns with the IRS and state tax authorities, obtaining at least $2.5 million in illicit refunds.

BACK IN THE U.S. - Manjit Singh Bedi, one of the FBI’s Most Wanted Fraudsters, arrested in September in India. This marks yet another significant moment for the historic FBI’s Most Wanted Fraudsters program - Bedi is one of six Most Wanted Fraudsters captured since the creation of the new list three months ago – and yet another high value target captured overseas – in a group responsible for a combined over $2 billion in fraud and on the run for almost 4,000 days collectively prior to arrest. He is charged with defrauding the U.S. of at least $600k in SNAP funds from approximately 2024 to 2025, and now will face justice for his alleged crimes. Thank you to our outstanding partners for their assistance in this case.

95% of code was slop before AI, too. It was written by underpaid juniors because businesses wanted senior-level results on a junior-level budget.

OPERATION BLACKOUT This FBI’s historic, first of its kind global campaign to destroy scammers who target Americans and ruin lives. -Roughly $17 BILLION seized -Hundreds of alleged scammers arrested -Thousands of trafficked workers freed -10,000+ Americans warned before losing their money -$660 MILLION in estimated losses prevented This @FBI is blowing up scam compounds and saving American citizens hundreds of millions of dollars. And when these networks move—from Southeast Asia to the Middle East to Africa—we move with them.
Fraud is a global threat conducted by Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs) - it takes global partnerships to stop it. Under Operation Blackout the @FBI is in London with our partners at the @NCA_UK and industry to prevent, disrupt, and dismantle scams targeting our citizens.
