You just cant make this up
The Smoking Gun reported:
The FBIs Hillary Clinton investigation turned up evidence that her e-mail accounts were targeted in multiple spear phishing attacks, one of which may have tricked the then-Secretary of State into clicking a malicious link included in the correspondence.
An FBI investigative report released today includes a section on the cyber targeting of Clintons personal E-mail and Associated Accounts during her tenure at the State Department.
Though riddled with redactions, the FBI report reveals that Clinton became concerned about the legitimacy of an e-mail purportedly sent to her from the personal e-mail of a State official. The e-mail sent to Clinton, the FBI noted, contained a potentially malicious link.
In reply to the suspect e-mail, Clinton wrote, Is this really from you? I was worried about opening it! The FBI report does not indicate to which e-mail account Clinton sent her response.
At one point, Clinton aide Huma Abedin wrote to an associate indicating that Clinton was concerned about someone hacking into her email since Clinton had received an e-mail from a known
associate containing a link to a website with pornographic material.

I certainly hope Hillary’s stupidity is not taken as a reflection of all women! Hillary is giving women a bad name!
Isn’t clicking on a phishing link only a first step? You have to also input some sort of information, don’t you?
For example, if you click on a phish link that purports to be from your bank, but don’t do anything additionally stupid, like entering your account information and validating passwords—which is what the phisher is after—no harm is done, right?
So, if Hillary clicked on a porn link—probably of young semi-nude Arabic women (heh, heh)—but didn’t subscribe by entering additional info, would it matter? Aside, from telling us how foolish she was for not having ignored it in the first place, that is.
Lesbian no doubt.
“no harm is done, right?”
Nope.
Check comment #9. The link took her to a malicious website that infected her device.
Yes, phishing is an attempt to get you to click on an embedded email link, usually disguising its self as being from your bank or credit card company, even the IRS in an attempt to get you to enter your SSN, DOB, account number and password, etc.

However, clicking on an embedded email link or opening a PDF attachment can install malware or spyware on your computer.
Could you imagine someone photoshopping a pic of Hillary as Moby Dick being speared or harpooned by a computer hacker named Ahab?
Thar she blows!
The smartest woman in the world proves she is a technological idiot. However, she is too arrogant to ask any peons to help her learn. The media ignores this and tells us Trump is an idiot.
“This stuff just muddles things.”....
More smoke and mirrors folks? Distracting the readers away from the really important stuff she has been involved with for years? The noose is tightening and she just keeps on lying!
“She needs a nursing home!”.......
They have those in jails.
“Wonder what option the Dems will choose?”............
IMO, the demodummies will NOT be choosing, odumbo will.
Hitlary “MAY” actually win the so-called election.
Hitlary will be too ill (or mysteriously die) and will be “unable” to be sworn in.
Odumbo will have to appoint someone to accept her term. Unfortunately odumbo will then appoint himself as POTUS.
He is not going away easy!
Exactly. Thank you.
I have had a TS clearance for several years. We are REQUIRED to go through cyber security awareness training annually. The training specifically addresses phishing attacks and other cyber threats.
Back in the Clintoon's hayday, the Limbaugh Letter had a backpage feature and graphic:
CRIMINAL OR STUPID!...Which is it?
I want a bumper sticker.
If their were an olympic competition for lying, they’d give her all three medals.
Didn’t HRC say that she never used her desktop computer? Would a phishing link like this even work on a blackberry or ipad?
I’m afraid I’ll have to plead ignorance on both questions.
