You just described a raid...
Some people may see it in some other way.
Maybe I'm too American raised in too much cop movies but a raid always comes off like body armor, armor piercing rounds of ammo, and flash bangs.
So I kinda need it explained like this.
I think it mostly has that connotation but a bunch of feds showing up unexpectedly at an office to confiscate the books and computers before they can shred/delete data I'd still call a raid.
Raids in america involve guns swat teams and often phantom warrants.
