THE WHISTLEBLOWER WHO REPORTED HOWARD LUTNICK’S EPSTEIN LINKS TO THE FBI JUST DIED.
Former British banker Simon Andriesz has died at 57.
The Banker reported that he died by suicide, although no official cause of death has been publicly released.
His story had become important because Andriesz was the whistleblower who took allegations involving current US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Jeffrey Epstein to US authorities.
Andriesz worked at BGC Financial, part of the financial group then led by Lutnick.
In 2016, he raised concerns internally about accounting, controls and auditing practices at BGC.
The CFTC later fined BGC Financial $3 million, and Andriesz said the regulator identified him as a whistleblower whose information significantly contributed to the case.
But his disclosures did not stop there.
Andriesz said he contacted US authorities in 2020 and 2021 with information concerning Lutnick, Epstein, Cantor Fitzgerald and BGC.
His name and allegations later appeared in released FBI material.
Then, after Epstein related documents were released, Andriesz found records showing later contact between Lutnick and Epstein.
The records included a 2018 email exchange involving the digital advertising company Adfin, in which both men had invested.
Other released records showed that Lutnick and his family visited Epstein's private island in 2012.
Andriesz took his findings to the House Oversight Committee, which later interviewed Lutnick privately in May 2026.
Lutnick acknowledged visiting Epstein's island and has disputed how his relationship with Epstein has been characterized.
He has not been charged with a crime or accused by authorities of participating in Epstein's offenses.
Andriesz had also spoken publicly about the personal consequences of his years of whistleblowing, describing medical, legal and financial costs associated with his disputes.
Now, at 57, his death has been confirmed.
There is currently no public evidence linking his death to Lutnick, Epstein, BGC, the FBI, or any of Andriesz’s disclosures but it is very suspicious.
