A White House official confirmed the investigation, following a report by the Wall Street Journal that business leaders and politicians—including governors, senators, and members of Congress—began receiving texts and calls from someone who had apparently hacked into Wiles’ personal phone, gaining access to her contact list.
One of the messages reportedly included a list of individuals the impersonator claimed should be pardoned, while another contained a request for a cash transfer.
