Trump Ice Maiden Hit With New Imposter Plot After Embarrassing Breach
thedailybeast.com • • world
Key Points:
- The White House has been alerted that Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ phone may have been compromised for a second time, following messages exchanged with an imposter by new UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham.
- Burnham engaged in several messages with the impersonator before the British Embassy in Washington flagged the issue to the White House.
- The first alleged hacking incident occurred in May 2025, prompting an FBI and White House investigation after senior politicians and business leaders received fraudulent communications from someone pretending to be Wiles.
- President Donald Trump previously dismissed concerns about the initial breach, expressing confidence in Wiles’ ability to manage the situation and denying the possibility of impersonation.
- These security breaches follow the Signalgate scandal in March last year, which involved leaked discussions of secret strikes, and reports that MAGA affiliates exploited access to Trump by approaching him after senior aides had left for the day.
