The rewards program not only offers monetary rewards for information aiding anti-
terrorism operations, but also promises confidentiality and anonymity for the informant.

The Counter-Terrorism Rewards Program, as part of Rewards for Justice, has had several
key successes. Information received through the program led to the arrest and eventual
conviction of the 1993 World Trade Center bomber, Ramzi Yousef. The highest current
priority of the rewards program is information leading to the capture of al-Qaeda front
man, Usama bin Laden, and others with suspected involvement in the 2001 attacks on the
World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
