Data Breach?
No idea if this is true, but knowing regular CPD security protocols on everything else, not to mention the stellar cast of characters working in any city job, this needs to be checked and verified:
- ALERT ALERT ALERT
To all Chicago Police Department Employees.City Hall is attempting to put a lid on a massive Data breach that occurred last sunday night. All of the Department Members personal information was accessed by an unknown Hacker.This means SS numbers, Home addresses,Emergency Contact Information,ETC was retrieved by an unknown source. Take the appropriate action and continually monitor your background information and of course protect your families and homes.
FOP,you need to get on this and demand that the City come forward with this breach.

...not sure it was a breach, perhaps someone leaked the data
A word of advice from someone who had his ID stolen (SS#) via the Equifax data breach. Place a credit freeze on all four credit bureaus.....NOW! It is a slight inconvenience to lift the freeze when you need to finance a major purchase. You can spend years cleaning up the aftermath of someone who steals your identity. As far as the credit monitors out there, "Lifelock", etc......not foolproof and not worth the expense. Do it yourself by locking everything down. Take care during these difficult times.
I was an investigator under contract to homeland security when the chinese hacked into the federal data base. They obtained the personal information of everyone who had worked for homeland security. The government gave us three years of free monitoring. If this happened to you, demand the same,
And they don’t want us covering our nameplate when the animals have access to our home address?
Sounds like a tort liability case, if true.
Sounds like Bolshevik Red Terror.
This will be completely ignored by our media and elected officials. Our useless, Communist Mayor most-likely handed the files to her Antifa cohorts.
Once again.. Get rid of officers names on nametags.
Replace them with the star number.
"Protesters" are taking pictures of officers nametags and then looking up the coppers home address.
If anyone has a monitoring site that we can trust to purchase please post it. Unreal, this city is so fucked.
Since CPD is clearly under siege from a internal and outside forces , ALL sworn need 24 to 48 hours to shore up the home front . It’s in the New Contract right ? We are clearly in uncharted territory here so Family First and show them what unfunded looks like .
Police departments need reform alright, stop hiring political hacks and affirmative action. Have REAL legit hiring and meaningful hiring process not a political one. Police departments do not have a racist problem, there will always be a few racists ( black and white) but they could be weeded out. Politically hiring and affirmation action will largely stop the BS.
I know im asking the impossible.....but IT IS what needs to be done.
Turns out the old man that was knocked down was skimming the personal Information from the Buffalo Police
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CubkyIzygQ
The City admit they were lax? No way!
Heard the same thing from a source on the City Hall Detail.The Mayor,s response was,"That is the least of my concerns now".Take the appropriate actions and be ever so vigilant and suspicious of everything and everybody.
If it's true - we are fucked. It happened to me 16 years ago. My identity was stolen and it took me 3 years to fix everything. Another issue is our addresses. If it gets published we'll have to really watch our backs. I can't imagine going through this again. Be safe you all.
OT:Did the commander of 010 really take a knee? Is this confirmed?
25% raise
4% a year retro
Live outside the city +20 years on (NY can retire)
Free City Umbrella Policy 1 million
Desk jobs only for those 25+ years
50 and out insurance
1 week of free suspension coverage
No name tags just star #s
This may be the minimum to get somebody to even want to show up for work in this assault on police environment.
A twerk party with over 100 people on the street. Homicide in 012. One dead and three others shot next to United Center.
This is the kicker.....over 134 cartridge casings recovered on scene. Thank God everyone was social distancing and six feet away, or there may have been 20 dead.
For fucks sake. As if things cant get any worse. You can kiss my ass with your 1 year free credit monitoring, cause that's what the city will probably offer if that. If true, this is horrible and the mayor and this city can suck a bag of dicks.
Breach or a Leak ?
Current administration does not support CPD .
Transparency , investigative reporters still no release of special ed video tutoring a female officer for oral exam this fall .
And they wonder why we cover our names and stars. Nothing to protect us. What if we gave everyone who had an axe to grind reporters home addresses. Would that be ok? No right.
OT: Can we ever be United like this?
New York state: 57 police resign to support officers fired for shoving 75-year-old | New York | The Guardian - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/05/new-york-state-57-police-resign-to-support-officers-fired-for-shoving-75-year-old
Every single one of those officers who resigned also showed up outside as the accused officer was exiting the building after the hearing. Good for them.
What about retirees? The department is a data whore, they still are carrying files on cr's they should of destroyed but did not.Just because your retired, doesn't mean they didn't hang on to your personal data. Dont trust them.
Hacks probably don’t happen, but likely in these challenging times like the covid protests we’re seeing, some disgruntled techie goes rogue or maybe the angry toads operatives involved.
I never update(ed) my info with HQ when I moved with the exception of my ssn at finance (probably the main source of important records to steal) that ain’t nobody there needs to know.
District, FOP, DefComp,Voter reg, maybe a couple others were the only places that had my current address and some got my cell number for Med Sect purposes. I look at it as my version of “where I stay”.
Put your DL/PLT reg elsewhere too.
It costs nothing to place a Fraud Alert at all 3 credit bureaus...
Experian.com
TransUnion.com
Equifax.com
CPFCU is another place that somehow is frequently “hacked”.
Again and again the city proves their total lack of professionalism in securing information. We have people that are not even qualified managing vital information not surprised this happened, ridiculous stupid deadly situations could result from this! The CEO chief executive officer Lightfoot proves again why she’s not competent to manage anything she can’t even manage a two person hot dog stand.
You can’t do anything about stopping people from coming to your house, but freeze your credit reports now if you didn’t do it after the Equifax freeze. It can be a painstaking process to get all three locked down, but it beats the alternative.
OT: they’re taking a play right out of Rahm’s playbook. “Never let a good crisis go to waste.” The formation of the reparations committee is up for a vote, and every single alderperson is going to have to vote yes or be labeled a racist.

In my professional opinion, having managed many Data Centers since the 1990's,the vast majority of data breaches are inside jobs. Frequently, a Company will sell the data illegally for great sums of money (Soros-size piles of cash), then claim a data breach by Russian eLitE HaCk0rZ to cover their trail and present plausible deniability later when the source of unique data collection later becomes identifiable.
If the City was cash-strapped and had a grudge against Cops, that is where I would look first. Antifa would be very interested in purchasing all the personal info of Officers.
Data is currently the most valuable thing on the Planet. Bezos, Gates, Zuckerberg, Jobs all made their Oligarch fortunes selling our Data.
It would appear to be prudent to protect identities and families at this point affected by the breach.
It fucking figures...ok JCAT get that new team of lawyers you were braging on & get this lawsuit moving!
Aren't or shouldn't they do free credit monitoring services for like at least a year
Data breach my ass. Groot probably sold the information.
Vulnerabilities in out network systems have been known and ignored for 15 years. This is absolutely the result of our former Chief J. Lewin who continually ignored recommendations by technical staff to address known security vulnerabilities in the CPD infrastructure.
groot will offer free credit monitoring.
all cops defending life and property will get COPA-ed
Like any other individual, I want police officers to be held to account for their actions. I do NOT support where this is going and what it signifies. Redress is to be done out in the open, through courts, through ballot boxes, through executive decisions, NOT through family members or home addresses jacked hacked and smacked.
Just Stop It. I pray for Officer Safety. I pray for Citizen Safety. Please let us pray together
r, let us come together, let us be together again!
How about the Sgt's Union? WHere are they at? I took the promotion and I'm very disappointed in the response and support of my own union!
Another one? Maybe they should just stop hiring gang bangers, criminals, and assholes.
Of course there would go 3/4 of your available candidates.
Call the three credit agencies immediately. If you don’t have a freeze on your credit, put one on now. Then put an alert on that your information has been compromised. Then get a copy of your credit report so you have a baseline, and then monitor it for changes.
I hate to say it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some police hating City employee had something to do with this.
Residency. It HAS to be challenged. It has become a safety issue.
Wow! How does this happen? WTF! I know big Steve Maris is on top of this.
Do you have any information on how many CPD officers have resigned or chosen to retire since the protests began?
Being on the front lines you wonder why i don't have a star or name on my vest. I have more than myself to worry about you piece of shit pandering mayor! I have my family to worry about. Look at how many officers are getting doxxed every day now by fucks who wish to do me or my family harm. I'll take the day or two suspension gladly if it means my family is safe. Go fuck yourself Groot you fucking piece of shit communist!
They need to enroll the entire department into an identity theft protection program. The unions need to get on top of this immediately to see if it's TRUE. If nothing is done and members start getting hit, then a class action lawsuit by the unions.
Could be a huge problem. If true.
I retired last October,Am I included ?
FYI it is probably antifa that is doing it.You should listen to Lara Logan on Foxnation she has been investigating this they also have info on gov. info. So beware and stay safe.
https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/how-did-the-obama-foundation-tweet-a-george-floyd-poster-on-may-17-when-he-wasn-t-killed-until-may-25 Hi all. Civilian here. I'm no tech guru so I'm sorry if I messed up the link. I checked it out and it seems to be what it says. How to explain it? Stay safe, do what needs doing and remember...most of us are behind you. Ask us for help...anything, and we will be there for you as you have been there for us. Oh...and one more thing...Fuck Groot. I wonder. Did somebody? Or did it adopt?
Oh you poor thing, bless your soul. One day you'll figure out how this works :)
if true, does this breach include people that applied to CPD in the past? A lot of personal information was given during that application process.
All I know is that my phone has been blowing up with spam calls this week.
Stinks like an inside job. Some offended snowflake?
Fop needs to push the city to remove personal info from any digital platform. These turds have nothing but time on their hands, they are gonna find a way into whatever database we use
Warn your emergency contacts.
Antifa is that scummy?
Got to be careful as a Las Vegas police officer was attempting to arrest a protestor another protestor came from behind and shot and killed the officer in the back of the head. Protestors just killed two police officers in California with IED’s and Cpd found 2 ied’s in Chicago already. Jamal green via social media is telling protestors at attack white neighborhoods and loot white businesses, hopefully the FBI steps in and arrests Jamal green for this.

Don't believe that the city hasn't sold all your information to the highest bidder already, breach my ass someone got paid for this act of terrorism...
Some clown on facebook posted an officer's picture and home address. Keep an eye out and press charges and sue if you can.
You can't trust the City.
Any verification yet?
Anonymous has threatened to hack in to the computers of various police departments and to release the home addresses of police officers. This is bullshit. This should be considered a federal crime and we need to ask Springfield to pass a law. Harass a law enforcement officer outside his house and you get charged with a felony.
Call Mancow, WLS radio, 890 AM ASAP and advise 5:30 to 9 AM to blister Groot's fat stinky ass. You'll hit 2M listeners tomorrow morning instantly. I feel the Love already from Groot. And these Fucks want to do Contact Tracing for China V. for all Chicagoans and keep all your personal and medical information secure. Fuck you Grooty. Enjoy another shit sandwich. Don't forget to chew it thoroughly before you swallow, there's plenty to shit to eat.
Another Shit storm brought to Chicago by Larry Lightfoot. You failed to protect downtown businesses, the west side and the south side from looters, rioters, thugs and other roving bands committing fuckery. You failed to protect our privacy and you have failed Chicago again. Larry Lightfoot, Socialist Democrat ruining Chicago at every turn and in every way.
So now the city leaked our info. Classic. Now will come the cover up.
Back to 019... Is it true that the first watch desk crew has been working in district on RDOs. Must be nice...
I’m retired please don’t come to my house to harm me or my family. I never shot anyone in my 27 year career hopefully I won’t have to shoot anyone in my golden years.
Mancow Muller tear her bald ass up.
You can also put a comment on your credit report that you must be personally called before any credit at all is granted. All lenders and credit card isduers abide and it's easier than freezing all the bureaus.
Do not know if this is relevant, I retired last year, but I have had lifelock for over a decade now (signed up when they were relatively new and I heard from a few detectives that identity theft was the up and coming crime), and on this past Friday (05 June), they alerted me to someone doing a credit search on me.
How about the Sgt's Union? WHere are they at? I took the promotion and I'm very disappointed in the response and support of my own union!

6/07/2020 10:22:00 AM
And, exactly how would you go about it? Please, dazzle everyone with your newly discovered information that will annihilate the residency requirement.
A number of bright minds going back as far as 60 years ago have searched for a solution, but none were successful. I hope you have a brand new approach.
However, if we are defunded, residency might no longer be an issue because you will no longer be employed by the city.

And, how many productive Chicagoans will stand up and tell the city council to pound sand? And, in reality, how many will lay down and take it?
- Not a Chicagoan
Several have commented on hos the CPFCU is frequently hacked. I have an easy answer to that one: find another credit union. In a place the size of Chicago and Cook county, there are likely many credit unions that have broad acceptance standards.
Some are, for example: “live, work, or worship in [city or county list]”. “All first responders”. “Make a one-time contribution [usually two days lf lunch money] to [decent local charity] plus $5 to open a savings account.”
Decades ago, I lived in the very north end of California, on the coast. I had several customers in Curry County Oregon. I was sick of Bank of America, and, ona whim, pulled up to a credit union office in Bandon Oregon. “Do you live here?” No. “Do you work here?”. Sort-of. I explained my twice,-weekly delivery and sales runs. The teller looked over at the only other person in the branch. “Sure sounds to me like he works in Curry county... sir, that will be $5 to open a checking account, and if you want checking, you open it with $20...”. In ten minutes, my banking problems were solved.
I checked out the You Tube video of the guy in Buffalo who took a dive before Buffalo PD. Sure looked like he was using a phone device scanning two of the officers. He placed the phone in 3 different places where first officer had phone and radio. Then did it to 2nd officer. At that point he stumbled down falling backward. Uber suspicious timing me. Shortly thereafter the Politburo censors at You Tube pulled the video as being detrimental to the Libtard Movement. Watch yourselves. The sheep in America don’t believe There are highly organized, very sophisticated groups out to destroy us.
NYPD, LAPD, Philadelphia, Houston, Phoenix, Dallas, New Orleans. No residency for officers. Why are we being forced to live here? Please tell me.

Simple. Every union that challenges wins. Wow! Would you look at that! Bet you ain't getting a raise, demand residency in return. Also. if you can live in hegewisch and work ar O'Hare, you have no argument against me living in Munster and working in 022, 003, 005.
Decent companies provide at least 1 year of free credit-report monitoring when personal data is breached on their watch.
Lori? You failed to protect city employees; now what?
Residency-No,Bright minds have not searched for a solution or attempted anything to remove residency requirements.They were bought off very cheaply.It is not complex.The State Law gets struck down,like it has in every major city in the country by litigation or a political sponsor,and then you can have it as part of contract negotiations or just file a lawsuit to achieve it.
All Retirees Personal Information is still contained in the City of Chicago Data Bases.We are all at risk and it will get worse.This is a coordinated effort that has been coming for at least since President TRUMP took office.Litigation needs to occur ordering the City of Chicago to remove all retirees information from their systems.
I have received 3 Alerts via Lifelock in the last 2 weeks.The stolen information is being taken on a test run at this time to find the holes and weaknesses.
Contact all three credit bureaus and lock your credit. It only takes a few minutes. I was surprised at how many people at work didn't know about this feature. It only takes a couple of minutes to unlock it so save yourself the headache and just call.
NOT law enforcement, but long time reader. YOUNGER sibling is an officer.

Here are screenames of 2 unhinged crazies taunting and provoking officers up north. when an interaction occurs, these snowflakes demand badge #'s and names and put the info on blast to their radical followers. They are literally harassing officers as they eat their lunch. You can find this scum on the North Side. Lakeview & Uptown area. Unfortunately, my neighborhood is predominantly made up of these scum liberal millenial transplants.
I say fuck them, forget confidentiality. I will put THEM on blast for you all to see. It's absurd, people are out there hunting CPD and their families. The silent majority is behind you guys, stay safe.
019 desk crew? How about LT wilson from 005..refuses to go to sox park on rdos and the bosses let her sit in the office for 12 hours bitching at everybody to wear a mask and gloves scared of her own shadow and truly a failure as a human being.

Go for it. It only takes one
Listen up folks. YOUR personal information is already out there on dozen of websites. If you ever bought a home, got credit of any kind, are on any social media, have an email, have utilities, have a phone number , bought anything online, or have a NAME, etc, then your personal information has been sold or shared. So when someone hacks you or steals an identity, most of the time it is random. The latest site was www.cyberbackgroundchecks.com. I put my cellphone number in and it displayed all my information and then some. It has an option to opt out. Ive done it on numerous sites. it sucks.

It depends when. Are you asking about when he dropped a knee to become Commander or in support of the protesters?
