Threatening emails like this -- purporting to be from the Proud Boys -- are being sent to voters in Florida and Alaska.

We do not know who is behind them, but whoever it is is taking a lot of steps to mask their identity.

One email we looked at @jsrailton had been sent using internet infrastructure in Saudi Arabia.

Does this mean it came from Saudi? No.

Vice earlier reported an email they looked at -- with the same message, but to a different voter -- had been sent through infrastructure in Estonia. @misstessowen @lorenzofb https://www.vice.com/en/article/88a43b/proud-boys-emails-threatening-florida-voters-appear-to-use-spoofed-email-address">https://www.vice.com/en/articl...

"This isn& #39;t someone with a fake email account sending messages. This is an operation. The questions will be: how big was it, how many were targeted, and how well were tracks covered," @jsrailton told me.

Proud Boys say it wasn& #39;t them.

Remember people are posing as different groups online to stoke tensions.

Earlier this summer a white suprematist group posed as Antifa. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/02/tech/antifa-fake-twitter-account/index.html">https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/0...
