MASSIVE: A Somali “Most Wanted Fraudster” Said Abdullahi Ereg turned himself in and was arrested after he allegedly stole over $4 million from the Federal Child Nutrition Program in Minneapolis during the COVID-19 pandemic from 2020-2021.
Ereg surrendered upon landing at Minneapolis International Airport today after learning he had been added to the list.
The Somali-born man is accused of fraudulently claiming over 1.4M meals through the Feeding Our Future nonprofit, pocketing more than $4.2M in federal funds. Prosecutors say he laundered the money to foreign accounts while funding a lavish lifestyle.
He faces charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering.

A customer just won a fraudulent chargeback for $4,603.00 USD stating he didn't receive the product
We have every single shred of evidence against him that this is just plainly false and fraud:
- Complete communication log: 10 email threads from 6 months of documented correspondence showing the customer was satisfied, received the product and that the team ALWAYS responded to his questions or concerns in a timely manner with a resolution
- PLUS signed proof of delivery receipt
Now shopify is telling us, as I quote, these are the only options of what I can do:
"Report the customer to your local authorities to create an official record.
Consider pursuing civil action, such as small claims court, where your evidence will be valuable.
Report the customer's card to Visa or Mastercard to flag repeat offenders.
Block the customer from your store to prevent future orders."
This so high tier bullshit @Shopify
Anyone ever filed a lawsuit against a customer? Would love to get some advice into what to do here
