BBC UrduThe United States has offered a reward of up to $100,000 for help in arresting Faheem Akram, who is from the Pakistani city of Khanewal. The US Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) says Akram, 33, is accused of running a network that sold fake postage stamps and shipping labels.
Officials say more than 5 million fake postage labels were sold through the network, costing the US Postal Service more than $126 million.
“Do not try to catch him yourself. If you have information about his whereabouts, contact US authorities. The US Postal Inspection Service has announced a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to his arrest and conviction.”
A post from the official X account of US Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones says US authorities have shut down Akram's website and now need the public's help to find him. It adds that anyone with information about him can contact postal inspectors on 1-877-876-2455. A photograph of Akram was released with the announcement.
