Incident 12013 Report
Anthropic Reportedly Identifies AI Misuse in Extortion Campaigns, North Korean IT Schemes, and Ransomware Sales

2025-08-27

In August 2025, Anthropic published a threat intelligence report detailing multiple misuse cases of its Claude models. Documented abuses included a large-scale extortion campaign using Claude Code against at least 17 organizations, fraudulent remote employment schemes linked to North Korean operatives, and the development and sale of AI-generated ransomware. Anthropic banned the accounts, implemented new safeguards, and shared indicators with authorities.

Incident 15631 Report
KPMG Report Allegedly Included Hallucinated Citations and Inaccurate Agentic AI Case Studies

2025-10-28

In October 2025, KPMG published "Total Experience: Redefining Excellence in the Age of Agentic AI." GPTZero later reported that only five of 45 citations accurately matched their sources, while others contained flawed details. The pattern reportedly suggested an unverified LLM research tool, but the system and extent of AI involvement remain unconfirmed.
