This basically happened in Operation Mincemeat
Attached to Martin’s body was a briefcase containing secret documents that had been fabricated by the British Security Service. The purpose was to make German intelligence (which was known to have operatives in Huelva) think he had been a courier delivering documents to a British general. The documents were crafted to deceive the Germans into thinking that the British were preparing to invade Greece and Sardinia, rather than Sicily.
If they did it as blatantly as the people involved in the signalgate the German high command wouldn’t have believed it and disregarded it as misinformation.
To be fair that was intentional
So it’s closer to Juan Pujol Garcia.
As discussed on Citation Needed.
Definitely needs to be the other way around.
