We pause to reflect, remember, and honor the brave law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our communities.

We will never forget their courage.

Not all crime scenes have caution tape. Our Special Agents patrol the financial frontline, analyzing massive datasets, uncovering shell companies, & tracing crypto-transfers to seize stolen funds.

It’s complex detective work that protects the American taxpayer. #PoliceWeek2026

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

Fighting complex #fraud requires a united front.

Our Special Agents work daily with @DOJFraudDiv & law enforcement departments across the country.

Through data-sharing & joint task forces, we break down silos to aggressively intercept stolen funds.

#PoliceWeek2026

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

By the Numbers: #SBAOIG Special Agents deliver real #accountability.

Over the past 6 years, our #lawenforcement operations have resulted in: 1,860+ Indictments, 1,404+ Arrests, and 1,209+ Convictions. When criminals exploit taxpayer funds, our agents bring them to justice.

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

DYK: #SBAOIG has its own investigations division?

Our Special Agents (1811s) are highly trained sworn officers who execute search warrants, seize illicit assets, and make arrests. They are the frontline defense against fraud targeting small business programs.

#PoliceWeek2026

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

The #SBAOIG stands with our brothers & sisters in local, state, & federal #lawenforcement.

This #NationalPoliceWeek, we honor those who have fallen in the line of duty & celebrate the Special Agents here at OIG who protect the financial integrity of our nation. 🛡

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

As #NSBW2026 comes to a close, our mission does not. Whether it’s fighting pandemic fraud, ensuring fair play in 8(a) contracting, or auditing traditional 7(a) loans, the #SBAOIG is committed to protecting American small businesses all year long.

#PublicService

[SBA Office of Inspector General @SBAOIG]

CASE CLOSED: Fraud isn't limited to pandemic relief. The president of a defense contracting company in the SBA 8(a) program was sentenced to 48 months for bribing a DoD official to secure contracts. Integrity matters!
