1. A system for reporting and investigating threats, comprising one or more computer processors configured to:
present a chatbot via a user interface device;
request response data associated with a threat inquiry via the chatbot by requesting freeform response data associated with the threat inquiry via the chatbot and transitioning to intelligent question-path selection to collect additional response data associated with the threat inquiry, wherein the intelligent question-path selection is prompted by the freeform response data;
record user input response data; and
identify suspicious activity based on the user input response data by performing natural language analysis and searching the user input response data for threat related words or phrases.
