Omaha, Neb. — The FBI Omaha Field Office is asking for the public’s assistance in locating William Jack Berg of Waukee, Iowa.
The 51 year old Berg is wanted for allegedly defrauding more than a dozen client investors in a scheme that resulted in the loss of over $1.5 million.
It is alleged that victim investors provided Berg, a financial advisor in Waukee and Urbandale, Iowa, with funds for investment. However, rather than investing, Berg allegedly used the funds for his personal benefit.
On March 19, 2024, a federal arrest warrant was issued for Berg in the United States District Court, Southern District of Iowa after he was charged with Wire Fraud and Money Laundering.
Berg most recently resided in the Waukee and Adel areas and is suspected to have been in the Des Moines area as recently as March 25, 2024.
Berg is described as 5’11,” 195 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.
Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI’s Omaha field office at (402) 493-8688.
