- Hacker claims that they burst into the Mail Messaging Service
- Telemessage is a signal clone, a popular chat application focused on the confidentiality used by JD VANCE
- Hacker stole some files from the platform, but no American data has been taken
Telemessage, an instant communication application used by certain representatives of the US government, would have been hacked, with stolen private messages.
A report of 404 media Said that a pirate burst out and stole messages found on the platform, which were then shared with the publication, allowing him to confirm the authenticity of at least certain parts of the stolen archives.
In May 2025, Telemessage drew media attention after being revealed that Mike Waltz, a former American national security advisor, used an unofficial signal version called “TM SGNL”, created by Telemessage.
Waltz rejected
Telemessage is a modified version of the signal application, developed by an Israeli company. PK Press Club describes the company as “obscure”.
The application is built as a business and corporate archiving platform for SMS, MMS, voice calls and messages from applications like WhatsApp, WeChat, Telegram and Signal. Archiving is for regulatory compliance and evacuation of the evaluation.
Now, after hacking, everyone asks the same question-has the pirate stole the communications from the US government? The answer is apparently, no.
404Media Said the pirate did not steal any message from Waltz or someone else in the Trump administration. We also do not know how the hacker has accessed the information, if necessary, a zero vulnerability has been abused, or if malware has been deployed in the process.
So far, all parties, including telemontage and the US government, have not commented on the news. A signal spokesperson told PK Press Club that the company “could not guarantee the properties of confidentiality or security of the unofficial versions of the signal”.
Mike Waltz was dismissed from his role as US national security advisor on May 1, 2025, following an important security incident in which he inadvertently added journalist Jeffrey Goldberg to a signal group cat where senior officials discussed classified military plans for a strike against Houthi activists in Ymemen.
