ICYMI：部长贝森特和特朗普政府官员宣布明尼苏达州新的欺诈预防措施
2026 年 10 月 30 日
ST。明尼苏达州克劳德——今天，美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特 (Scott Bessent) 与联邦调查局 (FBI) 局长卡什·帕特尔 (Kash Patel)、医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心 (CMS) 管理员穆罕默德·奥兹 (Mehmet Oz) 博士、联邦贸易委员会 (FTC) 主席安德鲁·弗格森 (Andrew Ferguson) 以及国家欺诈执法部门助理总检察长科林·麦克唐纳 (Colin McDonald) 一起前往明尼苏达州圣克劳德，宣布多项举措，以打击猖獗的欺诈行为。明尼苏达州浪费了数十亿纳税人的钱。
今天的公告强调了特朗普政府为保护纳税人的资金、防止欺诈并追究肇事者责任而做出的协调努力。昨天，明尼阿波利斯联邦调查局执行了与正在进行的欺诈调查有关的 26 项起诉书中的多项搜查令，并逮捕了四名涉嫌医疗补助欺诈者，他们意图诈骗受害者超过 4100 万美元，实际损失达 2165 万美元。这是联邦调查局、国税局刑事调查局、美国邮政检查局和国土安全调查局调查的结果。
为了进一步加强欺诈预防和侦查，财政部金融犯罪执法网络 (FinCEN) 今天发布了针对涉及通过美国货币服务企业进行跨境支付的风险的警报，此前金融机构报告了 2021 年至 2025 年期间超过 80 亿美元的潜在可疑电汇付款。FinCEN 还发布了一份通知，帮助金融机构侦查和报告利用慈善机构和非营利组织进行恐怖主义融资、欺诈和其他非法活动的情况。
“特朗普总统已经明确表示，反欺诈战争不是某个部门的工作，而是我们必须在整个政府中执行的一项任务，”财政部长斯科特·贝森特说。 “美国财政部正在使用一切工具来结束这种令人震惊的、不受控制的欺诈行为，并追究肇事者的责任。在这位总统的领导下，无论资金流向何处，联邦政府的全部力量都将随之而来。”阅读贝森特部长在《明尼苏达明星论坛报》上发表的专栏文章。
“我们国家的反欺诈战争始于明尼苏达州的医疗补助计划。从那时起，我们就开始了前所未有的努力，以打击这里和全国范围内的腐败，”CMS 管理员 Mehmet Oz 博士说。 “任何社会、任何美国人、任何病人都不应成为自那时以来我们所看到的犯罪行为的受害者。欺诈者不仅仅是窃取纳税人的钱。他们还威胁着数百万美国人所依赖的医疗保健的质量、可负担性和完整性。”
联邦调查局局长卡什·帕特尔表示：“我们正在查明犯罪资金流，确定其重心，并拆除其在全国范围内的网络。这包括粉碎长期以来困扰美国的犯罪欺诈复合体。” “联邦调查局正在追踪这些钱，如果你从政府或美国纳税人那里偷窃，正义就会找到你。”
“像明尼苏达这样的州获得了整整四年的免费通行证。在这段时间里，犯罪分子可以从勤劳的美国人那里偷钱，过着奢侈的生活，而其他人却在受苦。”联邦贸易委员会主席安德鲁·弗格森说。 “特朗普总统、万斯副总统和贝森特国务卿传达了一个非常明确的信息：受够了。抢劫美国公民的时代已经结束。我们再次将美国人放在第一位。”
“明尼苏达州是美国欺诈的中心，”司法部代理副总检察长特伦特·麦科特说。 “特朗普政府的打击行动正在发挥作用，结果不言而喻。通过明尼苏达州欺诈特别工作组，我们正在系统地瓦解针对美国人的阴谋。在一千多张传票和 40 份搜查令的支持下，传达的信息很简单：从纳税人资助的项目中盗窃的人都是安全的。”
“明尼苏达州针对纳税人资助项目的欺诈行为令人震惊地集中，需要采取协调和持续的应对措施，”司法部国家欺诈执法部门的助理总检察长科林·M·麦克唐纳 (Colin M. McDonald) 表示。 “We are working with our law enforcement partners to uncover alleged fraud, protect public funds, and hold offenders accountable. We will continue these efforts until these schemes are dismantled and taxpayer dollars are protected from abuse in Minnesota.”

ICYMI: Secretary Bessent, Trump Administration Officials Announce New Fraud Prevention Measures in Minnesota
October 30, 2026
ST. CLOUD, Minn.— Today, U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent traveled to St. Cloud, Minnesota, along with Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chairman Andrew Ferguson, and Assistant Attorney General for the National Fraud Enforcement Division Colin McDonald, to announce several initiatives to combat the rampant fraud that has wasted billions of taxpayer dollars in Minnesota.
Today’s announcements underscore the Trump Administration’s coordinated efforts to protect taxpayer dollars, prevent fraud, and hold perpetrators accountable. Yesterday, FBI Minneapolis executed numerous search warrants related to ongoing fraud investigations in a combined 26- count indictment, and arrested four alleged Medicaid fraudsters who intended to defraud victims of over $41 million with actual losses amounting to $21.65 million . This was the outcome of an investigation by the FBI, IRS Criminal Investigation, U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and Homeland Security Investigations.
To further strengthen fraud prevention and detection, Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) today issued an alert on risks involving cross-border payments through U.S.-based money services businesses after financial institutions reported more than $8 billion in potentially suspicious wire payments from 2021 to 2025. FinCEN also issued a notice to help financial institutions detect and report the exploitation of charities and nonprofits for terrorist financing, fraud, and other illicit activity.
“President Trump has made clear that the war on fraud is not the work of one department, but a mandate we must carry across the Administration,” said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent . “The U.S. Treasury is deploying every tool to bring an end to this egregious, unchecked fraud and hold perpetrators to account. And under this President’s leadership, wherever the money leads, the full weight of the federal government will follow.” Read Secretary Bessent’s op-ed in the Minnesota Star-Tribune .
“Our nation’s War on Fraud began in the Medicaid program right here in Minnesota. Since then, we’ve embarked on an unprecedented quest to crush corruption here and nationwide,” said CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz . “No society, no American, no patient should ever be the victim of the crimes we’ve seen since then. Fraudsters aren’t just stealing taxpayer dollars. they are threatening the quality, affordability, and integrity of the healthcare millions of Americans rely on.”
“We’re identifying criminal funding streams, locating their center of gravity, and dismantling their networks across the country. That includes crushing the criminal fraud complex that has plagued America for so long,” said FBI Director Kash Patel . “The FBI is following the money, and if you steal from the government or American taxpayers, justice will find you."
“States such as Minnesota got a free pass for four full years. During this time, criminals were allowed to steal money from hardworking Americans and live a life of luxury while everyone else suffered,” said FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson . “President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Secretary Bessent had a very clear message: Enough is enough. The era of robbing American citizens is over. We are putting Americans first again.”
“Minnesota is the epicenter for fraud in America,” said Acting Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter for the Justice Department . “The Trump administration’s crackdown is working, and the results speak for themselves. Through the Minnesota Fraud Task Force we are systematically dismantling schemes preying on Americans. Backed by more than a thousand subpoenas and 40 warrants, the message is simple: No one stealing from taxpayer-funded programs is safe.”
“The alarming concentration of fraud targeting taxpayer-funded programs in Minnesota demands a coordinated and sustained response,” said Assistant Attorney General Colin M. McDonald of the Justice Department’s National Fraud Enforcement Division . “We are working with our law enforcement partners to uncover alleged fraud, protect public funds, and hold offenders accountable. We will continue these efforts until these schemes are dismantled and taxpayer dollars are protected from abuse in Minnesota.”
