Trump blames Tehran for email hack, as Microsoft warns of Iran, Russia and China election attacks
The Donald Trump presidential campaign has blamed Iran for an alleged hack that has resulted in internal communications including the “potential vulnerabilities of VP pick JD Vance” being leaked to media outlets.
Politico reported over the weekend that it had received emails from an anonymous AOL account since late July relaying “what appeared to be internal communications from a senior Trump campaign official.”
The documents included vetting details on JD Vance, the outlet continued, and the documents had been authenticated by “two people familiar with them.” The anonymous emailer claimed to have other documents, Politico reported.
Trump took to his Truth Social platform to declare: “We were just informed by Microsoft Corporation that one of our many websites was hacked by the Iranian Government – Never a nice thing to do!”
