LONDON (AP) — The FBI says that hackers have intercepted a sensitive conference call between the FBI and Scotland Yard cybercrime investigators.

The loose-knit hacking collective known as Anonymous released a roughly 15-minute-long recording of what appears to be a conference call devoted to tracking and prosecuting members of the group.

The FBI said in a statement Friday that the information “was intended for law enforcement officers only and was illegally obtained.”

The bureau said it was hunting those responsible.
