The Dodd-Frank Act created the first rewards programs for anonymous whistleblowers, covering both commodity and securities frauds. To be anonymous, whistleblowers must retain a Foreign Corrupt Practices Act whistleblower lawyer to file Form TCR (“Tips, Complaints and Referrals”) on their behalf. Please note, to qualify for an award, the corruption being reported to the SEC or CFTC must result in monetary sanctions in excess of $1 million.
