Oh that's a different issue from being anonymous.

No, they don't need physical proof/evidence to make an arrest. There's been blunders where agencies mixed up IP addresses and arrested the wrong person and ruined a persons livelihood only to admit mistake years later.

In murder cases I think they've prosecuted people just on google searches when no physical evidence existed.

Still no threat model... What information do you have and who are you protecting it from?

If you're just trying to not get your cc info stolen then that is a totally different issue (probably impossible, just get a card with good fraud protection and protection if your cc info is stolen).
