Andy Burnham duped by imposter posing as Trump’s chief of staff
The UK embassy in Washington is raising serious concerns with the White House after someone pretending to be US President Donald Trump’s Chief of Staff exchanged text messages with the new British Prime Minister.
There were no important communications were passed by Andy Burnham.
It’s been revealed that Mr Burnham quickly became suspicious about the messages and shut the conversation down before informing his officials of the phishing attempt.
A White House official told CNN the incident had nothing to do with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ devices being hacked.
