The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), has issued a warning that text messages exchanged between Apple and Android devices may be vulnerable to interception by foreign hackers. According to the agency, the Chinese government could potentially access these messages, highlighting a significant cyber espionage risk. Globally, 270,000 texts are sent every second. However, the FBI revealed that its investigation, launched earlier this year, uncovered “a broad and significant cyber espionage campaign” targeting telecommunications networks. “Since the FBI first identified specific malicious activity targeting the sector, we have identified that PRC-affiliated cyber actors have compromised networks of multiple telecom companies to enable multiple activities,” a senior FBI official disclosed. While the campaign primarily focuses on government and political figures, cybersecurity expert Peter Tran assured the general public that the threat is not universal. “The sky is not falling. There is nothing to panic about,” Tran told WBZ-TV. The FBI confirmed that the hackers accessed the private communications of a limited group of individuals linked to government and politics, seeking intelligence valuable to the Chinese government. “It had interest in this political climate around certain individuals that are of high value to the Chinese government with respect to the intelligence they can gain from it,” Tran explained. To safeguard against such threats, Tran advised against texting sensitive information. “So, the rule of thumb is, don’t text message anything that you wouldn’t grab a bullhorn and say in the middle of Harvard Square,” he warned, citing examples like Social Security numbers or credit card details. For heightened security, the FBI recommends using encrypted messaging apps such as WhatsApp or Telegram. According to the agency, another precaution is to use phones that automatically update their operating systems. Alternatively, users can resort to phone calls to avoid risks altogether.

Authorities are taking a closer look at mysterious Venmo payments that were sent from 31-year-old Hannah Kobayashi's account - including one for a possible tarot card reading. After missing her connecting flight to New York City on Nov. 8 from LAX, several suspicious Venmo payments were sent from Kobayashi's account the next day, before she was last seen at the Pico Metro Station in Downtown Los Angeles on Nov. 11. One of the payments was sent around 6:25 p.m. for an undisclosed amount to a woman named Veronica Almendarez. The only text that accompanied the payment was a bow and arrow emoji. The next was sent about an hour later at 7:19 p.m. to a man named Jonathan Taylor, also for an undisclosed amount. The payment carried the description "Reading'." Missing Hannah Kobayashi's family shares heartbreaking statement after her father Ryan's death Cause of death for dad of missing woman Hannah Kobayashi revealed by medical examiner Sources told the U.S Sun that it was a payment for a tarot card reading, something the "spiritual" Kobayashi is interested in. According to insiders, Taylor has been approached by those searching for Kobayashi through his TikTok account and has since turned it private. Taylor did not respond to the multiple requests from the U.S Sun for comment. Reddit users also alleged Taylor went live on social media to claim he introduced Kobayashi to a mystery man and doesn't know where she is now, but these claims have not been substantiated. Larie Pidgeon, Kobayashi's aunt, has made police aware of the payments, The U.S Sun reports. She also alleges that Kobayashi potential met with a scammer and that was the cause of the Venmo payments as well as the strange text messages sent from Hannah's phone, which family members say did not sound like her. "We have been made aware and so have the LAPD. It's in their hands," she said. "We are still focused on Downtown LA. Even though it's been 15 [days] we still have hope. Hannah's father, Ryan Kobayashi, traveled to Los Angeles to search for his missing daughter. But at around 4 a.m. on Sunday, he reportedly jumped from a parking structure near the famous airport, allegedly dying by suicide, the police theorized, according to the Long Beach Press-Telegram . Kobayashi’s family said he died by suicide, CNN reported . The medical examiner confirmed their family's fears on Tuesday when they ruled the cause of death to be a suicide by several blunt force traumatic injuries. The last pinned location from Hannah's phone was at LAX, it was reported. In New York, Hannah was supposed to meet up with family to attend events and check off some items from her bucket list, but her relatives began to worry when she didn't appear for those events and they couldn't reach her. Her ex-boyfriend had allegedly been on the flight from Maui to LAX with her, but they didn't sit together or speak, and he got on the connecting flight to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, but she didn't. He has reportedly been cooperating with the investigation. The circumstances of the woman's disappearance remain mysterious, and her father's death only compounds the mystery and intrigue of the events of the past two weeks. The FBI is assisting LAPD in their search and investigation of the disappearance, according to a statement sent by CNN by the Los Angeles FBI field office.

Business cycle remains a real risk for markets
Tech billionaire Elon Musk spent at least $270 million to help Donald Trump win the US presidency, according to new federal filings, making him the country's biggest political donor. SpaceX and Tesla CEO Musk, the world's richest person, was an ardent supporter of Trump's White House campaign -- funneling money into door knocking operations and speaking at his rallies. His financial backing, which has earned him a cost-cutting advisory role in Trump's incoming government, surpassed spending by any single political donor since at least 2010, according to data from nonprofit OpenSecrets. The Washington Post reported that Musk spent more this election cycle than Trump backer Tim Mellon, who gave nearly $200 million and was previously the Republican's top donor. Musk donated $238 million to America PAC, a political action committee that he founded to support Trump, filings late Thursday with the Federal Election Commission showed. An additional $20 million went to the RBG PAC, a group that used advertising to soften Trump's hardline reputation on the key voter issue of abortion. Musk has been an ever-present sidekick for Trump since his election victory in November, inviting him to watch a rocket launch in Texas by his SpaceX company. Trump has selected the South African-born tycoon and fellow ally Vivek Ramaswamy to head the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, through which the pair have promised to deliver billions of dollars of cuts in federal spending. However, with Musk's businesses all having varying degrees of interactions with US and foreign governments, his new position also raises concerns about conflict of interest. The president-elect has nominated several people close to Musk for roles in his administration, including investor David Sacks as the so-called AI and crypto czar. Meanwhile, billionaire astronaut Jared Isaacman, who has collaborated with Musk's SpaceX, was named the head of US space agency NASA. pgf-bjt/acb
