Wikileaks DNC Email Dump Sparks Malware Fears

FOX NEWS | July 29, 2016

The trove of leaked Democratic National Committee emails posted to Wikileaks on July 22 has sparked concerns about malware as users access the vast trove of documents.

WikiLeaks posted close to 20,000 emails and 8,000 attachments that were sent or received from top Democratic officials, appearing to suggest that the committee’s chairwoman, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and others favored Hillary Clinton over Sen. Bernie Sanders during the party’s primary. The release forced the resignation of Wasserman Schultz.

On the day of the leak, Google’s Transparency Report warned users of dangerous downloads from Wikileaks.org.
