Ministers' Numbers Exposed in Security Breach | Europe News
Description
Three U.K. Cabinet ministers, including the Defense Secretary, had their personal phone numbers leaked online—just as the Prime Minister fell victim to a scammer posing as part of Donald Trump’s team. While officials insist secure government phones are used for work, exposed personal numbers create serious risks in today’s tense global climate. Experts warn spoofing and impersonation scams are escalating, especially with AI voice cloning advancing. The PM’s office downplays the incident, calling it minor—but questions remain about how scammers obtained the numbers and whether ministers can stay accessible without compromising security.
