The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network published an update on its Rapid Response Program, reporting that it has facilitated the interdiction of more than USD 268 million in stolen funds for US victims since President Trump resumed office, bringing total interdicted funds to more than USD 1.8 billion since the program began. The program operates as a partnership between FinCEN, US law enforcement and foreign partners to support cyber-enabled fraud victims and their financial institutions when stolen funds have been sent abroad. FinCEN shares financial intelligence with counterpart foreign financial intelligence units and encourages foreign authorities to stop and repatriate fraudulent transactions using their legal authorities; the program has been used in more than 96 foreign jurisdictions and across schemes including business email compromise (USD 425.2 million interdicted), investment fraud (USD 49.8 million) and phone scams (USD 54.5 million). To initiate the process, victims or their financial institutions must file a complaint with law enforcement, including via the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, and financial institutions are encouraged to voluntarily report suspicious activity to FinCEN and immediately notify law enforcement.
