1/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

To friends, a cautious warning; to nefarious actors, you're put on notice & the radar of #NatSec

During the writ my bank account was hacked repeatedly, likely to gain insight RE who might be paying me

On #Elxn44 day, $3,000 was stolen
2/17 🧵#InfoSec #CDNmedia

Soon after the #Elxn44 writ dropped, multiple IP addresses began #hacking my bank account

According to bank security (that happens to be the HQ for all #CDNpoli banking #NatSec security), every attack arose from @Rogers/@RogersHelps accounts
3/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

And by no means was it even typical hacking. It's the type that put #NatSec on full alert because it compromised bank security as well as my own security & overrode all the safeguards that banks have in place

Please let me explain...
4/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Multiple @Rogers IP addys accessed my bank on multiple days without touching anything - just taking a gander

When they found I wasn't on anyone's payroll (be that a political party or intelligence agency), they began to alter my account
5/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Until hackers altered my account, no one was able to tell it was compromised

Then, they changed all my security questions so I couldn't gain access myself. They proceeded to increase my line of credit limit to generate enough $$ worth stealing
6/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Two thefts were then committed

First, $1,000 was stolen & sent to one of the attackers via e-transfer, but that never should've happened because the person/account it was sent to is already banned across all #CDNpoli banking for hacking fraud
7/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

What has #NatSec baffled is:

1) The e-transfer was sent brute force to a banned entity

2) That whoever did it managed to send a brute force e-transfer without generating a bank or @INTERAC receipt via email, overriding the system altogether
8/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

It's an extremely high level hacking technique that my security officer had never seen before

All @INTERAC e-transfer steps generate email notification & without altering my email address with the bank, attackers subverted all documentation
9/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Then $2,000 was transferred to my account from my nefariously increased credit limit & the second theft of said amount occurred as #Elxn44 results were rolling in, when I would surely be distracted

It went to someone named "Kiranpreet Kaur"
10/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

The second hacked e-transfer did generate an email notification, but it seems unlikely the named recipient was part of the scam because that would be a case of Canada's dumbest criminal & whoever compromised #NatSec is brazen but not stupid
11/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Adding to that, only a key logger could've obtained my bank card number to be able to perform a login

Whatever dubious code attackers are running is a high enough caliber that it's not detected by commercial anti-virus software
12/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

I was cautioned by bank security to have my computer investigated by somewhere like @citizenlab, because the tactics used against me & against my bank suggest intelligence-grade phuckery (such as NSO Group, Black Cube, etc)
13/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Needless to say, my mortgage, insurance, hydro, & internet bills are about to bounce because it will take time to recover my stolen funds & a hard lockdown had to be placed on my bank account as these breaches are investigated forensically
14/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Also needless to say, I don't cower from anyone & it only fuels my fire

Moreover, the long arm of #NatSec is coming for them because they meddled with the wrong woman. I don't care if I have to air-gap everything to pen my insurrection exposé
15/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

Anyone who thinks they can muzzle me will be acquainted with reality in a hurry. That goes double for hackers who compromised my son's accounts from IP addys in Chicago & Germany

If they thought I was a problem in #Elxn44, wait for the exposé
16/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec #CDNmedia

To friends & friendly sources, please know that all my accounts have 2-factor authentication, as well as the highest level of security applied at the source of various service providers

But if you're suspicious of anything, please let me know
17/17 🧵#CDNpoli #InfoSec

To those with something to hide, it was a fatal error to attack #CDNmedia & the Canadian banking system

I may be a thorn in someone's side, but you just incited the whole intelligence apparatus & it is so much bigger than I am

Expect this news will make most of you uncomfortable. Plz let me begin with a declaration that the #ClimateCrisis is real & requires immediate action

But you've also heard me address conflict of interest in #CDNmedia & this #thread has serious legal implications
2/24 🧵#CDNpoli #CDNmedia

It's outrageously serendipitous that #Huawei's Meng Wanzhou signed a plea deal today, the #2Michaels are coming home from China, & that Grimes is reporting marital troubles with Elon Musk

Could've never imagined those topics would intertwine like this
3/24 🧵#CDNpoli

When it comes to conflicts of interest in #CDNmedia my criticisms are not partisan

For #J_school legal reasons it has always been imperative for journos to decline reporting on people or matters that involve them & to ethically disclose when that isn't avoidable

1/34 🧵#CDNpoli #SLAPP

I've received a threatening letter from lawyers on behalf of @MercedesGlobal & @GlobalNews to prevent me from speaking about Stephenson's role in #CDNmedia as the wife of Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole's #Elxn44 director

This #thread is my response
2/34 🧵#CDNpoli #CDNmedia #Elxn44

I will not comply with demands made in bad faith by @GlobalNews & @MercedesGlobal, nor will I shrink from unfounded #SLAPP allegations that are libelous against me. I ask that you cease & desist with this harassment. Here are my reasons (con't):
3/34 🧵#CDNpoli #CDNmedia #Elxn44

On the 1st page of your error-laden defamation notice, you claim that I've caused @GlobalNews & @MercedesGlobal "serious damage" but fail to state any negative consequences & fail to provide evidence of damage

Is Elections Canada investigating?

1/9 I've had enough of #Elxn44 depravity. A death threat was broadcast about me by a podcaster you all listen to. Daily there are men on Twitter #SnitchTagging me to gun nuts to spark confrontation

#FYI I've already been shot by a 357 Magnum & I will not be intimidated by anyone
2/9 Most of you want the difficult reporting on dangerous topics that keep you up at night. But on social media, there's this trend where some of you (too many of you) throw female reporters at your enemies, as if we're virtual human shields you've nominated to fight your battles
3/9 But as you 'get your popcorn' to spectate at the events you've chosen for us to do battle, against the very entities you're afraid of, some of them try to track us down in our communities. I've had calls to my home from Yellow Vesters, Wexiters, Qanons, you name it

Disappointed in #CDNmedia. Downplaying #violence & mischaracterizing blame must stop. Threat is more serious than anyone wants it to be

This #thread is about NEW #HateClub escalation

2/24 🧵#CDNpoli #Violence #Elxn44

Someone alerted me to a new post in Zelda's Facebook #HateClub (thank you)

On the surface it indicates a #Conservative partisan/electoral purpose & that's interesting enough, but upon digging deeper it's a legitimate cause for #NatSec concern

Inspection of TheseAreTheFacts.net first revealed a plan to unite Conservatives

Closer to election it became a Trudeau attack machine

Since Zelda went into hiding over violent protests that terrorized hospitals & Liberal campaign stops, participants scurried to find new places to organize & a 🇨🇦 companion to Parler has emerged

This #thread is RE partisan #violence & how it's paid for
2/24 🧵#CDNpoli #Violence #Elxn44

There's been much ado trying to insulate Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole from the vulgar & violent uprising surrounding right-wing causes during the election

But on #Aug23 the CPC posted propaganda that specifically invoked violence as a motto
3/24 🧵#CDNpoli #Violence #Elxn44

The full Conservative ad shows a boxer punching forward & that was uncivilized enough

For those who use dark theme, xray, or colour inversion display (for style or visual disability), the violence was quite amplified

1/26 🧵#CDNpoli #2Michaels #Elxn44

It's been hard for me to watch #CDNmedia coverage of the 2 Michaels, knowing there's a pointless media blackout that's resulted in widespread #disinformation & exploitation by partisan actors

This #thread is RE Spavor

2/26 🧵#CDNpoli #2Michaels #Elxn44

Canada has become a laughing stock to our global partners due to #CDNmedia suppression of facts about Spavor & Kovrig, that are available to everyone else in the world, including 🇨🇦, if we only bothered to google

archive.is/9IxGI
3/26 🧵#CDNpoli #Elxn44

I've known facts about the #2Michaels for some time & I declined to share earlier so it wouldn't impact Spavor & Kovrig's trials in #China. But that collective ignorance is being weaponized against voters & both sides have been disingenuous in recent news
