Nearly $5 billion in suspicious financial activity was potentially tied to human smuggling over a three-year period, according to a new Treasury Department report that highlights the vast sums of money moving through smuggling networks operating across the U.S. border.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN, said financial institutions filed 67,540 reports involving suspected human smuggling from 2023 through 2025.

The money often moved along well-known migration routes, while large amounts of cash were handled near the U.S. southwest border. Investigators also found frequent transactions between people who had no verifiable family relationship.

"Many human smuggling networks generate profit for larger transnational criminal organizations, including Mexico-based drug cartels," FinCEN Director Andrea Gacki said in a statement. "Suspicious activity flagged by financial institutions provides critical information, and we will continue to work closely with both the private sector and law enforcement to dismantle human smuggling networks and protect our borders."

The number of reports involving suspected human smuggling reached its highest point in 2024 before falling 62% in 2025.

The United States was the most common location for people named in the reports, followed by Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and Colombia.

Money-transfer businesses accounted for about 97% of the reports. They flagged customers sending money in ways that did not match their usual behavior, transfers to locations along migration routes, and transactions that appeared deliberately broken into smaller amounts to avoid reporting requirements.

In 59% of those reports, the sender and recipient had no verifiable family connection, according to FinCEN.

Bank filings represented about 3% of the total data, but the transactions they identified accounted for roughly 61% of the nearly $5 billion in suspicious activity.

Among the warning signs were accounts receiving money from numerous people and customers making cash transactions that appeared designed to stay below reporting thresholds.

Travel agencies also surfaced in the analysis. FinCEN said some appeared to be sham businesses arranging travel for migrants, while legitimate agencies may have unknowingly helped facilitate smuggling-related activity.

The findings were based on reports financial institutions submit to federal authorities when they detect transactions that could be connected to illegal activity.

Judge Dismisses DOJ’s Anti-Semitism Lawsuit Against Harvard (Connecting the Dots: Judge Richard Stearns, Harvard University, Stanford University, Oxford University, Harvard Law School & The Carnegie/Soros Network)

U.S. District Judge Richard Stearns said the claims in the lawsuit were ‘too isolated and episodic to support a plausible inference.’

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Department of Justice on Aug. 13 that accused Harvard University of failing to protect Jewish students from harassment.

The lawsuit, filed on March 20, 2026, accused the prominent university of violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Judge Richard Stearns of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts said on Aug. 13 that the claim of an ongoing violation of Title VI lacked sufficient evidence.

“Without diminishing any concern arising from these occurrences, the court finds them, singly and collectively, to be too isolated and episodic to support a plausible inference that any institutionalized noncompliance with Title VI persists at Harvard to this day,” Stearns wrote in a ruling on Aug. 13.

The ruling was made after Harvard filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit.

“The Amended Complaint focuses almost entirely on incidents that took place during the 2023–2024 school year,” Stearns added. “Only three incidents are alleged to have occurred after this period, all of which took place nearly a full year later (and more than one full academic year before this case was filed) in March of 2025.”

Harmeet K. Dhillon, assistant attorney general for civil rights at the Justice Department, told The Epoch Times in a statement on Aug. 13: “We disagree with the ruling and are assessing next steps. The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division is actively investigating antisemitism nationwide. The Civil Rights Division has an extensive and active portfolio of antisemitism enforcement, including indictments, prosecutions, settlements, and investigations across the country.”

The Epoch Times reached out to Harvard for comment but did not receive a response by publication time.

The initial 44-page lawsuit, filed in federal court in Massachusetts, alleged that the university fostered and continued to foster a campus climate in which hostile anti-Semitism, discrimination, and anti-Israeli conduct thrived in the wake of the Hamas terrorist group’s Oct. 7, 2023, attacks in Israel.

The Trump administration alleged that Jewish students at the school were harassed, physically abused, stalked, and spat upon as Harvard allegedly “turned a blind eye” to anti-Semitism and discrimination.

“Fearful for their safety, Jewish students wore baseball caps to conceal their yarmulkes or kept out of sight, effectively denying them access to Federally funded educational opportunities,” the complaint states.

Former Attorney General Pamela Bondi, in a statement made at the time the lawsuit was filed, accused Harvard and other schools of allowing “anti-Semitism to flourish on campus,” and she said that the “litigation underscores the Trump Administration’s commitment to demanding better from [the] nation’s schools and putting an end to discriminatory behavior that harms students.”
