FAYETTEVILLE — A Rogers doctor charged with Medicaid fraud in Pulaski County Circuit Court was arrested on a federal warrant Saturday by U.S. Marshals.
Brian Hyatt, 53, of Eris Avenue in Lowell remained at the Washington County Detention Center on Monday under a federal hold with no bond set. Hyatt does not appear to have been charged federally with a crime as of Monday morning, based on a search of federal court records.
Hyatt faces two counts of felony Medicaid fraud in Pulaski County Circuit Court. He pleaded not guilty in January 2024 and was released on $15,000 bond while awaiting trial.

THE TD BANK INSIDER “BRIBE-FOR-DATA” SCHEME (USA)
Date: February 17, 2026 Perpetrator: Edward Low (Former Bank Employee)
Case Description: In a high-profile case of “Insider Threat,” Edward Low, a former employee of TD Bank in New York, pleaded guilty in a New Jersey federal court to accepting bribes in exchange for confidential customer data. Between 2021 and 2022, Low leveraged his internal access to harvest the personal details of high-balance account holders. He then sold this “hot data” to external fraud syndicates for as little as $26,700 in personal kickbacks.
The external fraudsters used the information Low provided to conduct “Account Takeovers” (ATO), creating fraudulent checks and falsifying bank records to drain over $500,000 from unsuspecting customers. Low even went as far as helping co-conspirators open shell company accounts at a second financial institution where he was later employed. He now faces a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison. This case has sent shockwaves through the global banking sector, highlighting that even the most robust external firewalls cannot protect against a “rogue insider” with administrative credentials.
