Episode Focus: The Adelstein Family's Fraud Against the U.S. Military

Description: In this chilling episode of The Fraud Files, we dive into the dark partnership of a father and son who ran a seemingly reputable defense contracting firm. David and Nathaniel Adelstein built their empire, ForcePlus, on a foundation of lies, systematically selling millions of dollars in counterfeit and substandard electronics to the U.S. Department of Defense. We trace how they exploited the urgency of military supply chains, replacing mission-critical components for aircraft and weapons systems with cheap, unreliable fakes. This is a story of corporate greed, shattered trust, and the ultimate act of betrayal: risking the lives of American service members for profit. Discover the sophisticated scheme, the devastating real-world risk, and the surprising way federal investigators finally cracked the case.
