The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s (Treasury) Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) maintains a whistleblower incentive program for members of the public to submit information about violations of certain statutes enforced by Treasury and the Department of Justice (DOJ), including the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and the national security laws that serve as the foundation for the U.S. trade and economic sanctions administered by Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). By reporting information about suspected Iran-related violations of the BSA and economic sanctions, whistleblowers help strengthen our national security and keep America safe.

FinCEN welcomes tips from both U.S. and non-U.S. whistleblowers regarding individuals or entities that may be violating the BSA or OFAC-administered sanctions programs. This includes information about violations of these authorities that may involve the use of Iranian proxies and facilitators operating outside of Iran. Potential violations of OFAC sanctions require a nexus to the United States, including direct or indirect transactions with or involving the United States, U.S. persons, or entities owned or controlled by U.S. persons. Non-U.S. persons are also prohibited from certain dealings, including from causing U.S. persons to wittingly or unwittingly violate U.S. sanctions, conspiring to violate U.S. sanctions on Iran, and engaging in conduct that evades U.S. sanctions.
