Iran-linked hackers have reportedly breached FBI Director Kash Patel’s personal Gmail account, publishing a trove of his private photographs and documents online. The hacker group, calling themselves Handala Hack Team, proudly announced the breach on their website, stating that Patel “will now find his name among the list of successfully hacked victims.”
According to Reuters, they published a series of personal photographs, including pictures of Patel enjoying cigars, cruising around in an antique convertible, and even making a funny face while taking a mirror selfie with a large bottle of rum. The hackers also released a sample of more than 300 emails. These messages appear to be a mix of personal and work correspondence, dating back as far as 2010 and as recently as 2019.
