On August 12, 2024, as the American elections approached, the BBC revealed that the messaging of the Trump campaign team had been hacked by Iranian agents. This time, it is Reuters who claims to have had discussions online with Iranian hackers using the pseudonym “Robert”. It is the same group as in the American elections. They told the British news agency to have 100 e-mail gigabytes from various accounts related to the White House. They thus mention the names of Susie Wiles, of the lawyer for Trump Lindsey Halligan, of advisor Roger Stone, as well as Stormy Daniels, pornographic actress who became an opponent of Trump. Without specifying the content, the hackers group spoke of the possibility of selling this content in order to distribute them. The American Minister of Justice, Pam Bondi, reacted, calling these threats as “inconceivable cyber attack”. On Monday, US cybersecurity officials warned that US companies and critical infrastructure could be in the Téhéran crosshairs.
