## Resource

The FBI just expanded its Most Wanted Fraudsters list with three high-profile fugitives—each allegedly ripping off millions through government benefits, investment scams, and military contracts—and they’re willing to chase them across borders. Manjit Singh Bedi, arrested in India after a year on the run, defrauded SNAP by running fake grocery transactions. Bernhard Eugen Fritsch, already convicted of stealing $7 million from investors for luxury purchases, fled to Germany before sentencing. Onur Simsek, suspected of funneling military contract money to Turkey, remains at large since 2023. This new initiative, modeled after the Ten Most Wanted list, aims to rally public help to track down financial criminals—and so far, five have been caught.
