Rewards for Justice – Reward Offer for Information on Hizballah Financial Networks in the Tri-Border Area
The U.S. Department of State’s Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program, which is administered by the Diplomatic Security Service, has a standing reward offer of up to $10 million for information leading to the disruption of the financial mechanisms of the terrorist organization Hizballah. Under this reward offer, RFJ is requesting information on Hizballah Financial Networks in the Tri-Border Area (TBA) of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay.
In the TBA, Hizballah financiers and facilitators generate revenue for the terrorist organization through illicit activities such as money laundering; narcotics trafficking; charcoal and oil smuggling; illicit diamond trade; smuggling of items including bulk cash, cigarettes, and luxury goods; document forgery; and the counterfeiting of U.S. dollars. They also generate revenue from commercial activities across Latin America, including construction, import and export of goods, and real estate sales.
