Nancy Pelosi Inundated With Obscene Calls And Messages After Russian Hackers Post Personal Info About House Democrats
Why can't there be just one hacker that leaves positive messages? "I hacked your phone, lady! Your family seems lovely, I hope you have a good day and a pleasant tomorrow. :)"
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi had to change her phone number after a hack of the House Democrats' campaign arm led to a barrage of "obscene" calls and messages, she said Saturday.
"I have received scores of mostly obscene and sick calls, voicemails and text messages," Pelosi wrote in a letter to party members. "Please be careful not to allow your children or family members to answer your phone."
Pelosi also urged members and staff who were receiving similar calls to change their phone numbers.
Her comments came just a day after hackers posted personal information, including cell phone numbers and email addresses, for Democratic House members and staff. The hacking group "Guccifer 2.0" claimed responsibility for the breach, which took documents from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
American officials have said the hack is likely the work of Russian intelligence services. Cont. (Video/Autoplay)
