三名外国人用超级智能冒充高管与律师 骗取全球企业逾1.29亿美元被起诉
美国司法部纽约南区联邦检察官办公室2026年11月6日公布，三名外国人被控利用超级智能（SI）冒充企业高管与律师，骗取全球多家企业逾1.29亿美元，三人已分别在西班牙与英国被捕，引渡程序仍在进行。检方强调，起诉书中的指控只是指控，三名被告在被证明有罪之前均推定无罪。
纽约南区联邦检察官 Jamie McDonald 与联邦调查局（FBI）纽约外勤办公室助理局长 James C. Barnacle, Jr. 公布，大陪审团起诉书指控 Jacob Soall、Sharon Hazan 与 Guy Sheetrit 参与该计划。Soall 于2026年6月17日在西班牙被捕，Hazan 于8月5日在西班牙被捕，Sheetrit 于9月7日在英国被捕。
起诉书指，2024年至2026年间，三人与同伙使用超级智能冒充多家公司高管的声音与形象，以及大型律所律师的身份，诱使企业员工把大额款项汇入由该团伙控制的全球多地银行账户。他们通常先冒充受害公司的首席执行官，声称需要员工协助一笔保密金融交易，再冒充据称参与交易的律师，最终指使员工把钱汇出。
据起诉书，该计划共骗取逾1.29亿美元，其中包括密苏里州一家医院系统482.9万美元、罗德岛州一家银行268.4万美元、加州一家医院系统296.8万美元、英国一家金融科技公司1157.8万美元、马萨诸塞州一家共同基金公司463.9万美元与佛州一家宠物食品公司524.2万美元。赃款其后被兑换成加密货币，以掩盖来源与去向。
起诉书还指，Soall 主要负责冒充英国律师，手边留有一份题为「律师通话」的手写脚本；Hazan 参与洗钱，并曾吹嘘自己自1994年起洗钱、过去三年洗钱逾4亿美元。Hazan 曾于2008年在纽约南区因共谋银行诈骗被定罪。
三人各面临七项指控，包括共谋电信诈骗、电信诈骗、加重身份盗窃与洗钱等，其中多项最高可判20年监禁，具体刑期将由法官裁定。此案由纽约南区复杂诈骗与网络犯罪组经办，联邦助理检察官 Kevin Mead、Brandon C. Thompson 与 Jackie Delligatti 负责起诉，西班牙国家警察与英国国家犯罪局协助抓捕。

Three Foreign Nationals Charged With Using Super Intelligence to Defraud Companies of More Than $129 Million
Three foreign nationals have been arrested and charged with using super intelligence (SI) to impersonate corporate executives and lawyers and defraud companies around the world of more than $129 million, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York announced on November 6, 2026. Prosecutors emphasized that the charges in the indictment are merely accusations and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald and James C. Barnacle, Jr., Assistant Director in Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), announced the unsealing of an indictment charging Jacob Soall, Sharon Hazan, and Guy Sheetrit for their participation in the scheme. Soall was arrested in Spain on June 17, 2026, Hazan was arrested in Spain on August 5, 2026, and Sheetrit was arrested in the United Kingdom on September 7, 2026. Extradition requests for all three are pending.
According to the indictment, between 2024 and 2026, the defendants and their co-conspirators used SI to impersonate the voices and images of corporate executives at numerous companies and attorneys at major law firms, in order to trick employees into sending large payments to bank accounts around the world controlled by members of the conspiracy. They typically began by pretending to be a victim company's chief executive officer, saying they needed an employee's help on a confidential financial transaction, and then also impersonated lawyers said to be working on the sham transaction.
The scheme ultimately stole more than $129 million from victim companies in the United States and around the world, including $4,829,580 from a hospital system headquartered in Missouri, $2,684,580 from a bank headquartered in Rhode Island, $2,968,497 from a hospital system headquartered in California, $11,578,474 from a financial technology company headquartered in the United Kingdom, $4,639,918 from a mutual fund company headquartered in Massachusetts, and $5,242,747 from a pet food company headquartered in Florida. Once wired, the money was converted into cryptocurrency in an attempt to conceal its source and ownership.
The indictment alleges that Soall primarily impersonated attorneys from the United Kingdom and kept a handwritten script titled "Lawyer Call," and that Hazan, who laundered funds from the scheme, boasted that he had been laundering money since 1994 and had laundered over $400 million in just the past three years. Hazan was previously convicted in the Southern District of New York of conspiracy to commit bank fraud in 2008.
Soall, 41, of Marbella, Spain, and the United Kingdom, Hazan, 54, of Israel, and Sheetrit, 42, of Israel and the United Arab Emirates, each face seven charges, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, and money laundering, several of which carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The case is being handled by the Office's Complex Frauds and Cybercrime Unit, with Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kevin Mead, Brandon C. Thompson, and Jackie Delligatti in charge of the prosecution.
