From approximately 2009 through 2019, Marr and other conspirators operated an international fraud and money laundering ring. They contracted with various international “boiler rooms” to launder fraud proceeds the conspirators had obtained from foreign victims, primarily by selling worthless investments. In reality, the investments were a sham and the victims received nothing.
The Department of Justice is overseeing the remission process and has retained Verita to serve as the remission administrator in this matter. Under the remission regulations found at 28 C.F.R. Part 9, victims of an offense underlying the forfeiture who have incurred a monetary loss of a specific amount, as demonstrated by documentary evidence, may be eligible for remission.
TopProceeds from the forfeiture of assets in the criminal cases against Marr and other conspirators will be made available to victims through a process called “remission.” The remission process is governed by the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 28, Part 9. After the Department of Justice (DOJ) has reviewed all petitions, approved petitioners will get payment for some or all of their approved loss.
You may be eligible for a remission payment if you sent funds to one of the sham investments related to this case between 2009 and 2019.
To apply, you must file a Petition for Remission. Claims may be made through the website at www.MarrRemission.com until August 29. 2025. Based on a review of the financial accounts used by Marr and the conspirators, pre-populated petitions were sent to victims who were identified through an analysis of incoming wire transfers. These forms can be returned online on the case website to the remission administrator.

TopThis only applies to U.S. Citizens. If your petition is approved, it must be reviewed by the Treasury Offset Program to verify that you do not owe any money to the federal government or certain state debts.

TopPlease enter the amount you transferred and indicate what currency your funds were in. We will convert that amount to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction. We will use that amount to determine your loss.
TopThere are insufficient funds to fully compensate all the victims in this case. Consequently, you and the other victims will receive a pro rata share of the net proceeds based on the amount of your net pecuniary loss. Your payment will be based only on the amount of the transfer into the perpetrators’ accounts. You cannot recover incidental losses, or opportunity losses (including anticipated lost profits or interest).
