The FBI just launched a new “Most Wanted Fraudsters” list and Todd Blanche has been highlighting it. One guy on there, Herbert Kimble, is wanted for health care fraud with alleged losses up to 1.2 billion dollars from 2014 to 2019. The list spotlights people accused of stealing tens of millions to over a billion in taxpayer money, often through Medicaid or similar programs. Many of these fraudsters lived large, buying luxury cars like Maseratis, Bentleys, and McLarens, plus expensive jewelry, real estate, and fancy lifestyles with the stolen funds. Feds have seized high-end vehicles in several of these busts. The Minnesota angle, a local suspect named Said Abdullahi Ereg from the Feeding Our Future case is also on the list, he allegedly took about 4.2 million meant for kids’ meals and spent it on his family’s lavish lifestyle. The crackdown’s ramping up nationwide with more arrests and seizures. On the FBI’s new Most Wanted Fraudsters list, the backgrounds vary. One of the biggest, Herbert Kimble, the guy tied to that 1.2 billion dollar Medicare fraud, is American, born in Chicago, but he ran call centers out of the Philippines and is believed to be hiding there now. Said Abdullahi Ereg, the Minnesota guy from the Feeding Our Future case, was born in Somalia. He allegedly sent millions overseas to foreign accounts. The Feeding Our Future scandal overall involved a lot of Somali-American defendants in Minnesota. There’s also a Filipino-American couple on the list for mortgage fraud, and another Filipino-American wanted for a big bingo fraud scheme. So while not every case fits one pattern, several involve immigrant communities from Somalia and the Philippines, with money often moving overseas.
