The United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation, on Thursday, published a list of 8 ‘Most Wanted Fraudsters’ for alleged financial crimes exceeding $1,255,000,000.
The suspects—six male and two female—include Herbert Kimble, who leads the pack with alleged healthcare fraud to the tune of $1,200,000,000.
Michael Lizaso Marasigan is wanted for conspiracy to operate an illegal gambling business, $34,000,000; Elaine Angene Escoe, wire fraud/money laundering, $32,000,000.
Others are Christopher Burns, mail fraud, $10,000,000; Rodney Dean Allen, wire fraud, $7,300,000; Said Abdullahi Ereg, wire fraud/money laundering, $4,200,000.
John Michael Dimitrion and Julieanne Baldueza Dimitrion are both wanted for mortgage fraud, $1,300,000 each. All the offenses were committed between 2005 and 2021.
FBI Director Kash Patel, in a statement, said the announcement marks the launch of Vice President JD Vance’s “historic initiative” of the ‘Most Wanted Fraudsters’ list.
The bulletin, he noted, represents some of those who allegedly stole millions in taxpayer money, saying federal agencies are mobilizing their full weight to bring identified fraudsters to justice.
Patel thanked interagency partners, VP Vance for his leadership of the task force, and President Donald Trump “for showing America that fraud won’t be tolerated in this country any longer.”
