Spanish Football Federation

has denounced the theft, through an "organized criminal action", of information Confidential of the Federation.

a journalist who has advanced to the RFEF the next publication of this

illegally stolen material that the media has received, according to the journalist , through an anonymous informer who has contacted an encrypted voice and has made it available through a mobile application".

Faced with this situation, the Federation, through its Department of Security and Integrity, has announced its intention to report the events to the Police, while explaining how for several months, "the Federation and its directors have been subject to attempts at computer attacks such as

hacking and phishing,

which were promptly reported to the Police".
