Epstein files were hacked by ‘foreign spy’ three years ago after secret break-in at FBI office | 11 March 2026 | A foreign hacker broke into the FBI’s New York Field Office in 2023 and tampered with files relating to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to a new report. The hacker, whose nationality was not disclosed, reportedly broke into the bureau’s office and gained access to government Epstein files on February 12, 2023, Reuters reports. An investigation into the breach found the hacker had been “combing through certain files pertaining to the Epstein investigation.” A source familiar with the breach told the outlet that the foreign hacker appeared to have been a cybercriminal rather than a foreign government. They also said that the hacker hopped on a video call with FBI agents. [A cybercriminal “hops on a call with FBI agents?” The cybercriminal is likely part of Mossad or Unit 8200.]
