In the wake of the shooting and stabbing attacks on Orthodox Jews in New York and New Jersey, as well as the ongoing anti-Semitic violence in the area, far-right online trolls are once again creating fake Jewish profiles on social media to fan the flames of discord between the black and Jewish communities.
The problem first appeared six months ago when Twitter was flooded with fake accounts of Jewish users who endorsed extreme views and anti-Semitic messaging. The campaign originated on the alt-right bulletin board 4chan and was designed to subvert Jews through impersonating them. This time, the online fake Jews are spreading racist incitement against the perpetrators of the latest wave of anti-Semitic attacks.

Report, block and always check the TLs/followers of new accounts before engaging with them. pic.twitter.com/R9EkO46QRK
