US Secret Service brings back its Cyber Most Wanted list
The US Secret Service has updated its official website this month to add a new page where the agency is now listing the most sought-after fugitives involved in financially related cybercrime investigations.
The new Most Wanted Fugitives page was re-added to the agency's site after the page had been removed from the site for the past few years.
The agency's most wanted fugitives page is very similar to the FBI's Cyber Most Wanted, with some names found on both lists.
However, there is a difference between the two. While the FBI's most wanted list includes the names of suspects sought in major cybercrime-related cases, the Secret Service's page only lists individuals involved in financial fraud cases, which fall under the jurisdiction of the agency's Cyber Fraud Task Forces (CFTFs).
Currently, the list includes only ten suspects, as follows:
| Name | Charges |
|---|---|
| Oleksander Vitalyevich Ieremenko | Sought in the hack of several newswire services and the US SEC. |
| Artem Viacheslavovich Radchenko | Sought for the hack of the US SEC. |
| Roman Sergeevich Kotov | Sought for the hack of several payment providers, retailers, and financial institutions between 2007 and 2012. |
| Rashawd Lamar Tulloch | Sought for laundering money for a criminal group carrying out online auction fraud schemes. |
| Danil Potekhin | Sought for a massive phishing campaign against cryptocurrency exchange portals and their users. |
| Dmitrii Vadimovich Karasavidi | Sought for a massive phishing campaign against cryptocurrency exchange portals and their users. |
| Farkhad Rauf Ogly Manokhin | Sought for laundering money for the Goznym malware gang. |
| Ahmed Yassine Abdelghani | Sought for his role in operating the Liberty Reserve digital currency. |
| Allan Esteban Hidalgo Jimenez | Sought for his role in operating the Liberty Reserve digital currency. |
| Pavel Pavlovich Dubovoy | Sought in the hack of several newswire services. |
