A foreign terrorist organization\u2019s ATM malware ring has drained $40,730,000 from U.S. banks across more than 1,500 jackpotting attacks.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Department of the Treasury\u2019s Office of Foreign Assets Control on September 30th of 2026 says<\/a> it designated 10 targets tied to a Tren de Aragua fraud scheme that has become a key revenue source for the group, plus a high-ranking TdA leader.<\/p>\n

The Mexico- and Venezuela-based network installs malware that forces ATMs to dispense cash, then moves proceeds including through cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the administration will not let terrorist groups exploit the U.S. financial system through theft targeting Americans.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s administration will not allow terrorist organizations like Tren de Aragua to exploit the U.S. financial system or enrich themselves through theft and other criminal activity targeting American individuals and businesses.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

As of August 2025, reported losses from alleged ATM jackpotting attacks totaled $40.73 million across over 1,500 attacks. FBI Top 10 Most Wanted fugitive Anibal Alexander Canelon Aguirre, known as Prometheus, orchestrates the operation.<\/p>\n

The State Department identified TdA as a Foreign Terrorist Organization on February 20th of 2025. Since October 21st of 2025, the Justice Department has indicted 98 people in ATM jackpotting schemes linked to TdA. The designations also cover Mexico-based firms including Enigma Community and Soluciones Integrales Toluca.<\/p>\n
