MP Luke Evans Speaks Out After Becoming Latest Victim Of Honeytrap Phishing Attacks

British Conservative MP Luke Evans has revealed how he became the latest victim of the ongoing sexting scandal engulfing Westminster, after receiving explicit images and messages on his personal devices. Speaking out publicly for the first time about his experience, Evans explained how he immediately alerted authorities after the unsolicited content arrived while with his wife and staff.

The Leicestershire MP said the first suspicious message arrived on WhatsApp last month, containing a naked photo of a woman. Concerned by the nature of the image, Evans wasted no time in reporting it to police and parliamentary authorities. Just 10 days later, a second set of disturbing messages were sent, this time caught on camera by Evans’ team to gather evidence for investigators.

MP Evans’ Decision To Blow The Whistle

In his video statement posted to Facebook, MP Luke Evans said he wanted the incident to remain private at first due to the ongoing police probe. However, with media outlets pursuing comments, he felt compelled to acknowledge his involvement. The politician praised for blowing the whistle, sparking the investigation that is still underway a month on. Multiple agencies including the Met Police and Leicestershire Police are looking into reports of malicious communications.

MP Luke Evans joins senior Conservative MP William Wragg in speaking publicly about falling victim to the phishing attacks. Wragg also admitted meeting with the perpetrator after receiving threats. While over 10 individuals are known to have received suspicious messages, the true scale remains unclear. This scandal has rocked Britain’s political establishment, though Evans’ actions may help authorities uncover those behind the disturbing operation.
