What is email spoofing? (email faking or forging)
"Email Spoofing" is the practice used by many spammers to falsify the header information in their e-mail advertisements.
By changing the header information someone can make the email appear to come from whoever they choose.
Hackers are now routinely stealing the e-mail or Web site identities of many people on the Web, and using them to send millions of pieces of junk advertising or offending emails.
The average person on the Internet doesn't yet understand what's happening here, and many legitimate companies are obviously being victimized.
