Scammers Impersonate Criminal Investigation Bureau to Extort Fines

Scammers are impersonating Taiwan's Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) by displaying fake pop-up web pages on adult sites, falsely accusing users of viewing child sexual exploitation content. These pages lock the user's device and demand immediate online payment of a hefty fine via credit card to avoid legal penalties. Police urge citizens not to panic, to close the page immediately, clear browsing history, and never provide personal or credit card information.

DOJ Drops Criminal Investigation of Fed Chair Powell, Clearing Path for Warsh Confirmation

The Department of Justice dropped its criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Friday, removing a major obstacle to Kevin Warsh's confirmation as the next Fed chair. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced the decision, saying the Fed's inspector general will instead investigate cost overruns in the central bank's headquarters renovation. Senator Thom Tillis had placed a hold on Warsh's confirmation until the investigation ended. Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized the move as an attempt to install "Trump's sock puppet" as Fed chair.

DOJ Drops Criminal Investigation Against Fed Chair Powell, Clearing Path for Trump Nominee Warsh

The US Department of Justice is dropping its criminal investigation into Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell regarding renovations at the Fed headquarters that went over budget. Trump-appointed US Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced she directed her office to close the investigation, clearing the path for Kevin Warsh, Trump's nominee to replace Powell, to be confirmed. The investigation, first made public in January, drew bipartisan criticism with Senator Thom Tillis blocking Warsh's nomination until it ended. Powell had called the investigation 'pretexts' meant to pressure the central bank to lower interest rates.

Met Police in Talks with Palantir for AI Technology to Automate Criminal Intelligence Analysis

The Metropolitan Police is in talks with Palantir about acquiring the US spy-tech company's AI technology to automate intelligence analysis for criminal investigations.
