The FBI’s successful FTOC (foreign transfer of custody) of Ibrahim Khaldoon Hilmi, who is charged with one of the biggest Medicare scams in history, demonstrates the FBI’s ongoing efforts to bring fraudsters to justice.

Hilmi is wanted for his alleged role in a $3.7 BILLION scheme to defraud Medicare. He fled the U.S. in May of 2025 and was recently detained by Turkish authorities.

The FBI’s resolve to pursue fugitives who flee from justice will not waver. FBI Miami investigated this case jointly with HHS-OIG.

The daylight photo depicts Hilmi’s departure from Turkey. The nighttime photos are of his arrival in South Florida last Friday.

FBI Director Kash Patel partly wrote: “This is yet another massive win for this FBI’s war on fraudsters with the White House Task Force led by VP Vance – and a monumental victory for the Trump administration showing that any criminal actor who steals from the American taxpayer will be caught, no matter where they try to hide.“
