If he had used a simpler word -- "fake" -- Podesta's account may have remained secure.

So, the IT guy recognized the fake-IP-address phishing address for what it was, and tried to write this is anlegitmate email. But he dropped the "il" and said it was a legitimate email.

But the IT guysay "change your passwords," which should have prompted John Podesta to, get this, change his passwords, which I guess he ignored.

Those sneaky Russians, brainwashing Jon Podesta (who by the way represents, with his brother, one of Russia's largest state-controlled banks in the US) into ignoring the second sentence of short emails.
