and data analytic tools secured for our prosecutors to recover hundreds of millions of dollars
more in fraud proceeds, bring remaining offenders to justice, and disrupt criminal networks that
continue to victimize our citizens.”
“While I am incredibly proud of the work of the CFETF and the significant law enforcement
accomplishments, much work remains in the fight against COVID-19 fraud,” said Director
Michael C. Galdo of the COVID-19 Fraud Enforcement Task Force. “The CFETF and its member
agencies have ongoing investigations into hundreds of identity thieves, transnational fraud and
money laundering networks, large-dollar individual fraudsters, and the businesses that
facilitated these crimes. CFETF member agencies have improved their data analytics
capabilities and are using these new skills to investigate fraud more efficiently and effectively.”
In addition to the efforts noted above, the CFETF has established five strike forces to focus on
the most complex and harmful pandemic fraud—often committed by overseas, organized, or
violent actors. Those strike forces, located in the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices across the country
including the Districts of Maryland, New Jersey, Colorado, the Southern District of Florida, and a
joint task force co-located in the Eastern and Central Districts of California, are responsible for
indicting 250 defendants to date, including gang members, inveterate fraudsters, and overseas
rings committing a myriad of cyber-enabled fraud against our citizens and government
programs.
CFETF members also established the National Unemployment Insurance Fraud Task Force, a
first-of-its-kind task force that developed a data sharing and lead development process within
OCDETF’s International Organized Crime Intelligence Operation Center (IOC-2), using data from
pandemic relief programs. The NUIFTF has used that process to disseminate over 100 leads and
intelligence associated with over $3 billion in suspected pandemic fraud.
In May 2021, the Attorney General established the COVID-19 Fraud Enforcement Task Force to
marshal the resources of the Justice Department in partnership with agencies across
government to enhance efforts to combat and prevent pandemic-related fraud. The task force
bolsters efforts to investigate and prosecute the most culpable domestic and international
criminal actors and assists agencies tasked with administering relief programs to prevent fraud
by, among other methods, augmenting and incorporating existing coordination mechanisms,
identifying resources and techniques to uncover fraudulent actors and their schemes, and
sharing and harnessing information and insights gained from prior enforcement efforts.
The CFETF members include Justice Department components, including the Criminal Division,
Civil Division, U.S. Attorneys, Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, FBI, Organized Crime Drug
Enforcement Task Forces, Office of the Inspector General, National Unemployment Insurance
Fraud Task Force, and INTERPOL Washington; and key interagency partners, including
Homeland Security Investigations, IRS Criminal Investigations, U.S. Secret Service, U.S. Postal
Inspection Service, and multiple representatives of the Office of Inspector General community,
