I'm calling BS to the Alfa messages. My US Intel course in 2016 said NSA's Carnivore swept all data. TheBlackAdder Jan 2023 #12

I'm not sure what you mean by "calling BS to the Alfa messages." Could you explain a little more? pnwmom Jan 2023 #14

The FBI saying they don't know the messages being sent to and from Trump's server. TheBlackAdder Jan 2023 #15

I understood that "look up" messages weren't actual messages, pnwmom Jan 2023 #17

The last of the pasted sentences. FBI thinks marketing emails or spam. Both have data payloads. TheBlackAdder Jan 2023 #19

They couldn't have been look-up messages sent before an email? pnwmom Jan 2023 #23

Highly unlikely. TheBlackAdder Jan 2023 #30

So you think there were real email messages and the FBI could know what was in them? nt pnwmom Jan 2023 #33

Let's put it this way, if it were email updates to bank services (either up or down). . . TheBlackAdder Jan 2023 #37
