In celebration of 911, the following complaint and threats were sent by a follower of Mohammad claiming to be named Bilal Ahmed, obviously an alias…
From: Bilal Ahmed 9-11-15
To whom it my concern:
You must be aware that you are hosting a hate website that has caused damage to innocent residents of Western, Massachusetts. In addition to physical threats and intimidation, people who have been mentioned in the website have lost business and have been denied employment.
While we are aware that we live in a society that values free speech, the website itself is not free speech since it is filled with hundreds of factual errors.
If you examine the website, you will find of 100 pages including Photoshopped pictures that claim that local mosques hang pictures of terrorists on their walls.
You company is providing a service to this individual and he has maps of peoples houses that are posted online and he is claiming that they are terror supporters. This is not free speech; this is criminal harassment that you are helping.
The number of people who the writer claims are supporters of terror include over 100 people that he mentions by name. In fact all of these people are professionals – doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers, etc.
The website itself is also using hosting and registration services that are outside of USA jurisdiction. (Canada, Japan, Singapore) Countries outside of the USA have greater control on hateful speech.
Please discontinue in providing technical help to maintain the website.
There were a few incidents that almost lead to violence that we believe were instigated by this website. This email is to make you aware of you support of this website and possible liability going forward.

Dear Reseller partner,
We received the following confession from an individual posing as a Muslim terrorist and claiming that he and hundreds of accomplices are the ones that have been attacking our servers and illegally accessing your databases by supplying fraudulent credentials.
Analysis of the server logs confirms that this may indeed be the source of the data losses, illegal downloads, hacking attempts, DOS attacks, and death threats that we have been investigating for the past few years.
The compromised data has been restored, and our legal and technical teams are working together to bring the perpetrators to justice and to prevent future attacks.
The confession and threats come from a person who identifies himself as Bilal Ahmed, obviously an alias, and our analysis has confirmed that this is definitely NOT the individual known as Billal Ahmad Mourtada of Foxboro. It may even be an attempt to disparage the character of this promising young honor student and his family and friends.
No action is currently required on your part, and we will keep you updated on the progress of our investigation and litigation.
Thanks again for choosing us.
Mr. Bilal Ahmed,
Thank you for your recent correspondence. At first our legal team assumed it was a joke, but our server logs do indeed confirm your claims and will be very helpful to our security team in their investigation of illegal activity during the time period in question.
For your convenience we’ve enclosed a SASE and a copy of your confession for you to sign and return ASAP. To help minimize their upcoming litigation costs, and hopefully gain the sympathy of the sentencing judge, your accomplices may also wish to sign and submit copies.
Search Warrants are being prepared for the perpetrators, as well as the account holders of the ISPs from which the illegal activity was conducted. Although the server logs will provide all the necessary data to complete our investigation, you are encouraged to advise your accomplishes to remove evidence of any other criminal activity from their computers and homes – preferably in person – since use of a computer or phone to transmit such information will be construed as a violation of Federal racketeering and conspiracy laws.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and your continued assistance.
The Reseller Team
Muslim names can be so confusing
Do not confuse the sender of these threats, Bilal Ahmed, with the Foxboro honor student named Billal Ahmad Mourtada.
