Arab Americans targets of "email spoofing"
A growing number of Arab Americans and people with pro-Arab or Palestinian views are being targeted with impunity according to this Wall Street Journal story (subscription required):
Arab-American activist Nawar Shora checked his e-mail one day and found scores of angry messages asking why he hated Americans and Jews. The messages were responding to e-mails marked as coming from him.
Only one big problem: Mr. Shora never sent the hate mail.
Mr. Shora, a legal adviser to the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, was the victim of a form of harassment in which fake e-mail is sent using real addresses.
