Shaileshkumar P. Jain

Bjorn Daniel Sundin

Shaileshkumar P. Jain, 53, and Bjorn Daniel Sundin, 45: The men are wanted for their alleged involvement in an international cybercrime scheme that caused internet users in more than 60 countries to buy more than 1 million bogus software products, resulting in a consumer loss of more than $100 million. It is alleged that from 2006 to 2008, through fake advertisements placed on legitimate companies' websites, Jain, Sundin and their accomplices deceived internet users into believing that their computers were infected with "malware" or had other critical errors to encourage them to buy "scareware" software products that had limited or no ability to remedy the purported defects. The men deceived victims, through browser hijacking, multiple fraudulent scams and false error messages, into purchasing full paid versions of software products offered by their company, Innovative Marketing Inc., the FBI said. The proceeds of these credit card sales were allegedly deposited into bank accounts controlled by the defendants and others around the world, and were then transferred to bank accounts in Europe. When customers complained that their purchases were actually fraudulent software, call center representatives were said to be instructed to lie or provide refunds to prevent fraud reports to law enforcement or credit card companies. Jain and Sundin were indicted in Chicago on May 26, 2010, by a federal grand jury. That same day, a federal warrant was issued for their arrests. Jain, also known as Sam Jain, is described as Indian, 5-foot-8, 175 to 180 pounds and having black hair and brown eyes. He can speak English, Hindi and Portuguese.
