On his Twitter page, Warner disclosed that the new version of the document “was intended to get people to visit a scammer EIP website.”

“People are asking me if it is true that #Hushpuppi laundered $400,000 in #Stimulus cards from in prison.

“The document they show is an edit of a June 2020 Affidavit. The new version is fake, intended to get people to visit a scammer EIP website.”

Hushpuppi trial has been postponed from February to July 11.
