Updated at 2:25 p.m. Tuesday, July 14: This story has been updated to include a statement from the Alexandria Soccer Association.
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A man formerly employed by the Alexandria Soccer Association has been charged with multiple counts of embezzlement and computer fraud in a scheme that Fairfax County police say netted nearly $60,000 from 13 victims.
Detectives from the Fairfax County Police Department's Financial Crimes Unit received a tip through its online reporting system on June 25 and identified 13 victims, each of whom lost between $2,000 and $12,000. Police allege that Ahmed Mohamed, 31, of Fairfax, used his employment with the Alexandria Soccer Association to target some of his victims.
According to police, Mohamed allegedly created "Sporting Soccer Academy" in December 2025 and advertised a travel summer camp in Italy, collecting money from victims under the false pretense of covering travel, camp arrangements, and lodging.
Mohamed was arrested June 30 in the 4100 block of Monument Court in Fair Oaks and charged with 13 counts each of embezzlement and computer fraud. He was later released on his own recognizance.
In a statement provided to the Alexandria Brief on Tuesday, ASA confirmed Mohamed had been employed by the organization but said his alleged conduct did not involve ASA programs or operations and was not authorized by the organization. The full statement reads:
Ahmed Mohamed is no longer employed by Alexandria Soccer Association (ASA). The conduct that led to his arrest did not involve ASA or any of its programs or operations. At the time of the alleged conduct, Mr. Mohamed was acting independently to promote his own private program offerings. His actions were not authorized by ASA and were unrelated to his responsibilities with the organization or any ASA-sponsored program or activity. ASA will cooperate with law enforcement.
ASA did not say when Mohamed's employment ended or whether his termination was related to the investigation. The Alexandria Brief has asked for clarification on those points.
