Welcome to episode 277 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast. I am Chris Kirkbride. In this episode, the US expands "Operation Economic Outcast", and the UK issues a joint flash alert on the Russian "A7" sanctions evasion network. On money laundering, a prison sentence is handed to a Nigerian money launderer in the US, and the UK Gambling Commission takes enforcement action against two companies. On fraud, there are federal charges in an alleged long-running fraud scheme, and the Five Eyes alliance endorses international measures against global scam networks. On market abuse, a White House teleprompter operator is ordered to pay $172,000 for prediction market insider trading, and on cyber, the UK warns of the targeting of internet-exposed operational technology, and a cyberattack compromises the data of 8.7 million airport customers.
