Jared Kushner’s private attorney fell victim to a prankster posing as his client on Monday, exchanging several messages about Kushner’s use of a private email account to conduct government business and fielding questions about supposed “adult content” forwarded to that account.

The prankster, who goes by the handle @SINON_REBORN on Twitter and used the address kushner.jared@mail.com to contact Lowell, has since made their full Monday exchange public. He opened the conversation by asking Lowell what to do with “some exchanges with a website featuring adult content.”

“I need to see I think all emails between you and WH (just for me and us),” he wrote. “We need to send any officials emails to your WH account. Not stuff like you asked about. None of those are going anywhere.”
“But we can bury it?” the prankster responded. “I’m so embarrassed. It’s fairly specialist stuff, half naked women on a trampoline, standing on legoscenes, the tag for the movie was #standingOnTheLittlePeople :(”
“Don’t delete. Don’t send to anyone. Let’s chat in a bit,” Lowell responded.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.Lowell's exchange with the man posing as Kushner marks the second time this month that a top lawyer representing a senior White House official corresponded with the prankster thinking he was a colleague or client. The White House special counsel, Ty Cobb, disclosed information about the FBI's Russia investigation to the prankster earlier this month thinking he was the White House social-media director, Dan Scavino.

UPDATE 9/28: The prankster received (and forwarded to CNN) a letter from the Senate Intel Committee via Kushner's lawyer (who thought he prankster was Kushner) setting out their displeasure at not being informed of Kushner's private email account usage and instructing him to submit all communication from that account that has any relevance to their investigation. It seems Kushner neglects to inform fairly often.
