Paul Alec Bilzerian (born 1950) is an American army veteran, businessman, corporate takeover specialist, and felon. Bilzerian was the chairman and chief executive officer of Singer Corporation for two years, owning a controlling stake. In 1989, he was convicted on nine counts including criminal conspiracy, making false statements, securities fraud, tax fraud, and securities law violations, and sentenced to four years in prison and a fine of $1.5 million.

After also losing a civil lawsuit to the SEC, in 2024 the Wall Street Journal reported that Bilzerian had "been on the run from the Securities and Exchange Commission for so long [31 years] that he now owes the agency $180 million with interest."
