Israeli Police Arrest Israeli-American for Bomb Threats Against Jewish Centers
(Ha'aretz) Yaniv Kubovich - The cyberattack unit of Israel's fraud squad arrested the Jewish suspect on Thursday in wake of information it received from the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation and other law-enforcement authorities abroad. The FBI found that the threats had originated from Israel. Using innovative technology, the police were able to identify the suspect's home. Five computers were confiscated as well as antennas he used to access other people's networks and to commit the crimes undetected. Police are accusing him of extortion through threats and of false reporting, spreading panic. The suspect has lived in Israel many years. The army refused to draft him after finding him unfit for service.
