FBI Director Kash Patel’s personal email was hacked by an Iran-linked group, according to a report.The hacker group Handala Hack Team published photographs of Patel and his purported resume online, Reuters reported. The group said on its website that Patel “will now find his name among the list of successfully hacked victims.”
The newswire was unable to immediately authenticate the emails that Hanadala published, but a sample of the material uploaded by the hackers appears to show a mix of personal and work correspondence dating between 2010 and 2019.
A Justice Department official confirmed to Reuters that Patel’s emails were compromised but did not provide any additional details. The FBI and the hackers did not immediately respond to the newswire’s request for comment.
