$2 Billion Recovered
Congrats to Howard Wilkinson! Your courageous whistleblowing has recovered over $2 billion for the victims of Danske Bank’s fraud.
Wilkinson blew the whistle on a $200 billion Russian money-laundering scandal that moved rubles out of Russia, converted them to dollars at the Estonian branch of Danske Bank, and then moved the dollars to New York.
$104 MILLION REWARD
Bradley Birkenfeld broke the back of Swiss bank secrecy. He was the first Swiss banker to file a case under the IRS whistleblower law.
UBS bank was forced to disclose the identities of 4,450 U.S. taxpayers and faced a penalty of $780 million. Mr. Birkenfeld secured the most substantial individual qui tam whistleblower award, amounting to $104 million.

In doing so, they reinforce our fundamental values – that the rule of law matters, and no one is, or should be, above the law.” - "Whistleblowers Face Tremendous Odds," Statement of Commissioner Lee, Sept. 2020
