Chinese hackers who tapped Verizon's system were targeting phones used by people affiliated with the campaign of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, a person familiar with the situation said on Oct 25.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and his running mate, Mr. J.D. Vance, were also targeted, according to media reports. Reuters could not confirm those reports.

The New York Times reported that investigators were working to determine what communications, if any, were taken from Trump and Mr. Vance.

The Trump campaign was made aware this week that Trump and Mr. Vance were among a number of people inside and outside of government whose phone numbers were targeted through an infiltration of Verizon phone systems, it added.
