Washingtoner/10286219

LEBANON, Tenn. - Washingtoner -- THE COST OF FOREIGN FRAUD & ECONOMIC ABUSE

• Massive Financial Fraud – Foreign scammers infiltrate U.S. banking systems, investment markets, and businesses, stealing billions of dollars annually.
• Trade Imbalances and currency Manipulation—The U.S. imports more than it exports, sending trillions overseas while American industries suffer.
• Intellectual Property Theft – U.S. innovations are stolen, copied, and resold by foreign competitors, cutting into American business profits and growth.
• Cyber Attacks & Data Theft – Enemy nations hack financial institutions, steal Social Security numbers, and hold American businesses hostage with ransomware.
• Real Estate and asset Takeovers—Foreign investors buy up American land, businesses, and infrastructure, limiting opportunities for American citizens and companies.

WHY DOES AMERICA ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN?

• A Passive Approach – The U.S. government and corporations react after the damage is done instead of proactively preventing fraud.
• Ignoring the Signs—Despite clear evidence, many ignore foreign exploitation for short-term financial gain.
• Quick Money Over Long-Term Protection – Businesses chase fast profits through outsourcing, sacrificing national economic stability.
• Foreign Influence on Critical U.S. Sectors – Nation's hostile to U.S. interests own, control, or manipulate key American industries while Americans struggle.
