Over $2.3 billion has so far been recovered, and roughly 100 suspects, from individuals to groups, have been arrested.

The Secret Service, in announcing the arrest and dollar amounts, also said a new national pandemic fraud recovery coordinator has been appointed to oversee agency investigations.
The new coordinator, Assistant Special Agent in Charge Roy Dotson, told CNBC: “I’ve been in law enforcement for over 29 years and worked some complex fraud investigations for 20 plus years, and I’ve never seen something at this scale.”
He also said the agency still has over 900 active investigations related to pandemic fraud.
