Federal Bureau of Investigation, also known as FBI, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US, founded in 1908 and employing approximately 9,430 individuals. The agency's primary function is law enforcement, serving as the US domestic national crime agency.
On July 30, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) highlighted an alert issued on July 20, informing the public that criminal scammers are impersonating FBI personnel facilitating Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) complaints to deceive and revictimize individuals. The alert noted an escalation in social engineering tactics, including identity impersonation, synthetic media, and phishing schemes, targeting previous scam victims. Earlier on July 30, the FBI detailed its national two-month campaign, Operation Winter SHIELD (Securing Homeland Infrastructure by Enhancing Layered Defense), which launched earlier this year to highlight key actions private sector organizations, including those in healthcare, can take to protect against cyberattacks. Previously, on July 29, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center released its 2025 report, revealing that Americans filed 181,565 complaints tied to crypto fraud last year, with total reported losses reaching $11.366 billion, marking a 22% increase from the prior year. This follows a coordinated cyberattack that occurred between July 26 and July 27, disrupting operational technology systems at more than 30 water and wastewater utilities across Minnesota, causing temporary disruptions to computerized operating systems and cellular-connected equipment.
