Hacker Claims Breach of Police Tip Data

A hacker has claimed to have accessed and stolen more than 8 million confidential law enforcement tips from a U.S.-based platform.

The attacker said they infiltrated P3 Global Intel, a service used by police, federal agencies and schools to collect anonymous tips, and extracted around 93 gigabytes of data. The breach was reportedly achieved through social engineering and a system vulnerability.

The claims have not been fully verified, though some reports suggest portions of the data may be authentic. Neither the company nor the FBI has provided an immediate response.

If confirmed, the breach could raise serious concerns about the security of sensitive reporting systems used by authorities, as well as the privacy of individuals who submit confidential information.
