I would like to report violations of Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) regarding a foreign based NYSE-listed corporation. I have certain information regarding their business practices in former Soviet Republics. This company, its affiliates and/or its subsidiaries were involved in business practices that Foreign Corrupt Practices Act considers as illegal. The company paid, and in some cases intended to pay bribes totaling up to $25 million to foreign government public officials including presidents, ministers and their relatives. I have some documents including agreements, memorandum of understandings, shareholder agreements, payment schedules, invoices, money order documents and emails. Some of the documents are original, some are photocopies. I witnessed some of these practices.
My initial questions:
1.Do whistle-blower laws apply to FCPA cases? If so, will there be a reward for me?
2.As far as I know, there are no statue of limitations in FCPA cases, is this true?
3.Are there any FCPA qui tam cases?
4.How can I make Department of Justice and Securities Exchange Commission to open a probe? What should be the approach?
5.How can I protect myself?
6.Do I need a lawyer? How can I find a lawyer?
