russian interference in the 2016 election. one said the server connection is quote odd. the official said there is more work for the fbi. internet records show the server owned by the russia based al pha bank looked up the numbe for the trump organization. it did so more than any other lookups to the trump everybody is siervers. so far, no evidence the two servers communicated with each other. alpha bank says neither it nor the co- founder had contacted mr. trump. the white house did not respond to the request for comment. the south korea president removed from power leading to deadly protests on the streets. how does this affect the u.s. relationship with seoul? we will go there next and see
it s looking up contact information. so while there isn t necessarily a phone call, usually it indicates something that might be an intention to communicate. that s what we heard from several computer scientists. one particular group of computer scientists who looked at this obtained these leaked internet records. records they were never, ever supposed to make public. and they were puzzled as to why a russian bank was doing this. was it trying to send an e-mail to the trump organization? they found themselves asking this but they couldn t tell. last summer during the presidential campaign the russian bank looked up the address to this trump corporate server 2,800 times. to put that into perspective, that s more lookups than the trump server received than any other source. the only other entity doing so many lookups was spectrum health, a medical facility led by dick devos, the husband of betsy devos, who was later appointed as the education secretary by president trump. these two entit
we do know part of the larger effort to figure out what happened in the attempts to influence the elections. manu, thank you. four months after early reports of a computer server connection with the trump organization and russian bank widely dismissed. did you know an fbi investigation remains open? sources close to the probe tell cnn it is in the hands of the fbi counterintelligence team. the same team looking into the russian interference in the 2016 election. one official says the connection is quote odd, but the official said there is still more work to be done. internet records show the server owned by alpha bank looked up contact number for a trump organization server. the alpha server did 80% more. so far, there is no evidence the two servers communicated with one another. no allegation of wrongdoing yet. the fbi declined to comment.
was so odor unusual about these communications? now, erin, what was so weird about his communications was that the russian bank repeatedly looked up the unique internet address of the particular server in the united states being used by the trump organization. in the computer world that is the same as repeatedly looking up somebody s phone number, doing it over and over again, while there is not usually a phone call, a particular group of computer scientists who maintained these leaked internet records, they were puzzled as to why a computer at a russian bank was doing this. was it trying to send an e-mail to the trump administration, they couldn t tell. now the russian bank looked up the address to the server over 800 times, that is more lookups than any other source. the only one was spectrum
leaked internet records, records they were never supposed to make public, they were puzzled as to why a russian bank was trying to do it so often. was it trying to send e. maim to the trump organization? these scientists couldn t tell. last summer during the presidential campaign, the russian bank looked up the address to this trump corporate server some 2800 times. that s more look ups than the trump server received from any other source. the only other entity doing that many look ups for the trump server was the spectrum health. that is a medical facility chain led by dick devos, the husband of betsy devos who was later appointed by the u.s. president as education secretary. now, those two entities alone made up 99% of the look ups. computer scientists we spoke to found that just plain weird. all the corporations involved say they never kmup indicated by e-mail with the trump organization and they have different explanations for the server activity. but they haven t provided that pro
