Yep.
In March, Podesta received a phishing email that warned him of someone trying to access his account. It instructed him to reset his password by following a hyperlink to a page hosted on
myaccount.google.com-securitysettingpage.tk/security. While it might appear that he was visiting
google.com, he (or a staffer who managed his email) went to
com-securitysettingpage.tk.
Before doing so, however, a Clinton staffer checked to see if the email was legitimate; basic security stuff. She got a
response back from another staffer, Charles Delavan, who wrote “This is a legitimate email. John needs to change his password immediately, and ensure that two-factor authentication is turned on his account.” He also explicitly directed them to a site on google.com.
The only problem is that Delavan meant to call the email “illegitimate.” From a new
report in the New York
Times:
IT Staffer: John Podesta Was Hacked Because of My Typo
You just can't make this shit up. LOL
