Tax Rep Network with Eric Green

A Sit-Down With Lucifer’s Banker, Brad Birkenfeld


Listen Later

In this explosive episode, Eric Green sits down with Bradley Birkenfeld, the iconic UBS whistleblower known worldwide as “Lucifer’s Banker.” Birkenfeld shares the inside story of how he exposed the largest tax-evasion scheme in history, triggered a global crackdown on secret offshore banking, and ultimately helped return $40 billion to U.S. taxpayers. He is also the author of the book Lucifer’s Banker Uncensored.


From his rise inside the elite world of Swiss private banking to the shocking discovery of a secret memo that revealed UBS was preparing to scapegoat its own bankers, Birkenfeld walks listeners through the high-stakes decisions that led him to blow the whistle and the stunning retaliation he faced from the U.S. Department of Justice.


Eric and Brad dig into:

  • How Swiss banking really worked behind the scenes
  • How 19,000 secret U.S. accounts and billions in hidden assets came to light
  • Why did the DOJ attack the whistleblower instead of the offenders
  • The political power networks that shielded UBS from full exposure
  • The Senate investigation that broke the case wide open
  • What it actually takes to bring a successful IRS whistleblower claim
  • The global impact of Brad’s disclosures — and why the fight is far from over


Unfiltered, riveting, and backed by original documents and firsthand experience, this conversation pulls back the curtain on one of the most consequential financial scandals in modern history. Whether you’re a tax professional, attorney, compliance expert, or simply someone who loves a real-world thriller, this is an episode you won’t forget.
