Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos May Be A Victim Of Saudi Arabia’s Hack

However, they haven’t had any evidence pointing out that Saudi Arabia provided the information for AMI.

After The National Enquirer revealed intimate images and texts sent by Jeff Bezos, the CEO of Amazon, and Lauren Sanchez, to the public, the CEO required his investigator to find out who was the culprit in this case. In an interview with the Daily Beast, Gavin De Becker who now serves as a security consultant of Bezos claims that his investigation team have just “concluded with high confidence that the Saudis had access to Bezos’ phone.” However, he also confirms that no sign has shown that the relationship between the purposeful access with what the Enquirer has allegedly held in their hand.

In February 2019, in Jeff Bezos’s post on Medium, he said that Enquirer and AMI (the parent company of Enquirer) was leveraging his private images and texts to blackmail him. That’s not all of the dramatic stories because it partially pointed out the struggle between the owner of the Washington Post Jeff Bezos and Donald Trump – the US President in power who has called the publication a “lobbyist newspaper.” In addition, Bezos’s affair was supposedly involved in Saudi Arabia that always kept its eyes on any activity of the Post and Bezos.

After the CEO’s post was published, he ordered Gavin De Becker to determine the ways The National Enquirer applied to approach his texts and images. It turned out Lauren Sanchez’s brother Michael was the one to reveal the secret relationship. However, some gave a few of other notable assumptions: for example, Bezos’s phone was hacked by an intelligence agency who offered the data to the Trump Administration, or the main culprit, in this case, came from the foreign powers like the UAE or Saudi Arabia.

In a post on The Daily Beast, Gavin de Becker cited some evidence showing that the texts’ real source perhaps was spread from Michael Sanchez. Accordingly, only after seeing intimate texts between the Amazon CEO and his secret lover, the Enquirer got in touch with Michael Sanchez.

In addition, Gavin de Becker also found out the connections between the Enquirer and the Kingdom, so AMI, as well as its publications, may be an effective tool for the country to squeeze onto its enemies including The Washington Post and Jeff Bezos.
