Been a victim of this kind of fraud? This page is for whistleblowers reporting fraud they've witnessed. If you lost money to a scam yourself, start with our fraud victim recovery guides — how to report it, try to get your money back, and protect your identity.
Should you talk to a whistleblower attorney first?
Not strictly required here — you can file on your own.
Statistically, represented whistleblowers recover awards far more often than unrepresented ones, and reporting through the wrong channel — or second — can forfeit your reward entirely. Because whistleblower attorneys work on contingency, a consultation costs nothing.
