British Prime Minister Burnham Communicated with Person Impersonating Trump's Private Secretary

According to the news site Politico, based on 4 officials, Burnham communicated with a person pretending to be Trump's Private Secretary Wiles. British Prime Minister Burnham later suspected that the person in question was not real. It is unknown what was said between Burnham and the person impersonating Trump's Private Secretary and when the messages were sent. The UK Prime Minister's Office Number 10 said in a statement regarding Politico's news: "We do not comment on national security matters." he said. Sources said Burnham exchanged "a few messages" after entering the Prime Minister's Office, but they were "of no consequence". He also stated that as soon as the messages are considered suspicious, they are immediately reported to the relevant authorities. The UK Embassy in Washington also forwarded the issue to the White House due to concern about the incident. The White House refused to comment on the issue. The White House and the FBI launched an investigation last year after senators, governors and US business people received messages and phone calls from a person claiming to be Trump's Chief of Staff.
