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.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), alongside the FTC and others, recently warned on March 14 that scammers are increasingly using QR codes to steal money and information, exploiting their expanded use as a new scam vector. Earlier on March 14, the FBI launched an official investigation into several games released on Valve's Steam platform, discovering some titles contained malware. This investigation follows the FBI's call on March 13 for information from gamers who may have downloaded malicious Steam games between May 2024 and January 2026, as part of an ongoing cybercrime investigation into code designed to compromise user systems and steal sensitive data. Also on March 13, the FBI issued a warning about AI-generated audio and video accelerating fraud, particularly during tax season, as criminals scale phishing, vishing, and video spoofs to impersonate tax authorities and trusted intermediaries. Previously, on March 13, an FBI alert revealed Iran is plotting a drone attack on California, prompting an expert to warn US defenses might be unprepared for potential swarm attacks on US soil.
