US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent issued a call for whistleblowers worldwide to report entities facilitating Iran's terror in exchange for monetary rewards. The initiative targets any individual with actionable information on funding channels, regardless of where they live or who signs their paycheck. These efforts are part of "Operation Economic Outcast," a Treasury campaign to sever all financial support to the Iranian regime and its enablers.

The reward program turns the Iran pressure campaign into a global tip line to change the traditional sanctions model. While previous efforts targeted banks and companies from the top down, this approach incentivizes employees, partners, and insiders to report facilitators from the bottom up to identify middlemen bypassing current restrictions.
