Lim Young Nam, aka Steven Lim, pleaded guilty to a charge of conspiracy to defraud the United States by dishonest means. Between August 2007 and February 2008, Lim was involved in a scheme to illegally purchase and export 6,000 radio frequency modules with encryption and long-range wireless data transmission capabilities from a Minnesota-based company.  Lim, a citizen of Singapore, falsely portrayed Singapore as the ultimate destination for the goods, when the actual destination was Iran. At least 14 of the modules were later found as components of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Iraq.
