Okay, so it's an unsophisticated attack, used for data gathering purposes directed at the police(not the military mind you). And it's obviously Iran. Really?
I'm not saying it's not Iran, it might be for all I know. I'm just interested in knowing why it's so obvious to that guy and how this is not propaganda to counterbalance the whole "stuxnet" debacle?
What could Iran possibly stand to gain from snooping on Israeli police? How about organized crime?
"What could Iran possibly stand to gain from snooping on Israeli police?"
I can think of lots of things, starting with information that is shared by Mossad. Even identifying the police officers who liaise with the intelligence service might be useful. If you can grab that info along with maybe the code names for a few projects, you can follow up with another email that sounds more plausible "Hey this is Moishe, can you shoot me the latest on the XYZ investigation?"
