I’d ponder that perhaps the real “tipster” is an FIB employee.
Wouldn’t be fair for the FIB to award their own employee with the reward (not that any sense of morality would prevent that).

A tip provider has to be “nominated”? I’ve never heard of anything like that before.

Why would the McDonald’s employee get the reward anyway? It was a customer who identified the suspect, and then asked an employee to call it in. Maybe the employee could get small percentage of it, but not a lot. It’s the customer who was responsible for capturing the guy and should get the reward, or at least the bulk of it.

And speaking of Mangione, has anyone noticed that the media are already losing interest in talking about him because they know he’s a far left-wing loon?

Because the NSA found him but can’t say that because it would violate his rights to search and seizure and could endanger the trial.
