The FBI posted a Most Wanted entry for Mary Carole McDonnell, charging her with bank fraud and aggravated identity theft for allegedly obtaining millions by posing as an aircraft-industry heiress. The agency says she may be located in Dubai and is soliciting tips from the public.

The FBI published a Most Wanted notice and wanted poster for Mary Carole McDonnell on December 10, identifying her as wanted on bank fraud and aggravated identity-theft charges. According to the online posting, McDonnell allegedly obtained millions of dollars from financial institutions by impersonating a purported aircraft-industry heiress and using falsified documentation to secure loans or transfers. The FBI bulletin details the alleged schemes, provides physical descriptions and photographs, and asks anyone with information to submit tips through established channels; investigators indicate she may be in the United Arab Emirates, including Dubai. Media pickup in early December amplified the alert to reach international audiences and potential witnesses. Authorities noted the cross-border dimensions of the case and the need for public assistance to locate the suspect, while reminding financial institutions about red flags and urging customers to report suspicious contact. The posting reflects continued use of public wanted notices as part of multi-jurisdictional fraud investigations and efforts to recover funds for victimized banks and account holders.
