About WHIP Reward
An independent guide to the federal Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program and the other U.S. programs that pay people who report fraud.
What we do
When the Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program was announced on October 20, 2026, the official rules and the public statements about it did not match. We built this site to put the official terms, the statements and the underlying data side by side, with a link to the original source for every figure.
What we are not
- We are not a government agency and are not affiliated with the White House, the Department of Justice, the Treasury or any other agency.
- We do not accept fraud reports and cannot submit them for you. Reporting to the government is free.
- We are not a law firm, and nothing on this site is legal advice.
Sources and methodology
- Program rules come from the agencies that run them: the Department of Justice, the IRS, the SEC and FinCEN, and the statutes they cite. Statements by officials are quoted with a link to the report or recording.
- Fraud case data is compiled from Justice Department press releases. The database page explains how each record is classified.
- Reward estimates apply each program's published percentage or award range to the amount you enter. Real awards depend on what the government recovers and on the agency's decision.
