Elon Musk’s email address for federal employee reports may have leaked. The trolling’s already begun.

Elon Musk sent government employees into something of a frenzy over the weekend after posting an ultimatum on X: Federal employees have to send an email saying “what they got done last week” or risk losing their jobs.

“Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump ’s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week,” wrote Musk. “Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”

Although Musk frequently shares disinformation on X, this was apparently no joke. An email went out to federal employees on Saturday, and was confirmed to be authentic (per the BBC) by the government’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM).

Of course, sending a mass email out that requests a response was only ever going to end one way: Swift leaking and inevitable trolling. It wasn’t long before the apparent response address was leaked on X.

The responses themselves weren’t far behind.

Will any of these emails actually be read by Elon Musk? We can’t say for sure, but it seems unlikely he’ll be going through them himself. That may not matter to some of the senders, though, some of whom just want to flood the address with as many messages as possible in the hope of making life trickier for Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Mashable has reached out to the email address posted on X. We’ve yet to receive any response, but the email itself didn’t bounce back, which suggests the address itself is real.
