Have you seen Jan Marsalek, a former Wirecard executive who is said to have been a key architect of the now-defunct firm's multi-billion dollar revenue inflation? The Wall Street Journal said he is on the run from authorities, who have so far failed to located him in a worldwide search.

The whole affair with Wirecard has been jam-packed with sturm und drang since June, when auditors said they could not verify that some $2 billion ostensibly held in various trust accounts actually existed. Shortly after, it was concluded that this money likely never existed at all, meaning that the entire firm coud have rested on fraud, as the missing money was equivalent to all the net income Wirecard has reported over more than a decade. Just a few days after that, the former CEO was arrested by German authorities, and just a few days after that the company itself said it was highly uncertain of its ability to not spectacularly collapse under the weight of its own contradictions (or, in less colorful language, to continue as a going concern).

Marsalek, who had been Wirecard's chief operating officer, has been eluding German authorities since June. He likely fled just days after being suspended June 18, and is believed to be in either Russia or the Phillipines, though searches there have yet to yield results. Photos of him, both with and without a beard, have been posted across the Internet, with Germany's Bundeskriminalamt (essentially, their FBI) urging any who have seen him to please contact their office.
