English term or phrase: email spoofing
Definition from Parliament House, Victoria:
A type of Internet fraud whereby the “header” of an email message is falsified to appear to come from a different sender’s address. This type of criminal activity is commonly used to deliver SPAM email, or for the purposes of fraud.

Example sentence(s):
  • Email spoofing may occur in different forms, but all have a similar result: a user receives email that appears to have originated from one source when it actually was sent from another source. Email spoofing is often an attempt to trick the user into making a damaging statement or releasing sensitive information (such as passwords). Carnegie Mellon University
  • You might receive an email that asks for detailed information on a secret company project which appears to come from your boss, but instead comes from your company's competitor. Many well-known companies are daily victims of email spoofing, either accidently with a virus, or deliberately. DAWN Ontario
  • A lot of modern worms use email spoofing when they send themselves from an infected computer. This spoofing tactic has led to a great deal of finger pointing and confusion among Internet users. Brett M.Christensen

Mashtrimi i origjinës së mesazhit elektronik


Definition from own experience or research:
Mashtrimi i origjinës së mesazhit elektronik mund të ndodhë në forma të ndryshme por ka rezultate të njëjta: një përdorues merr një mesazh elektronik i cili ngjan të ketë ardhur nga një burim kur në të vërtetë është dërguar nga diku tjetër.

Example sentence(s):
  • Mashtrimi i origjinës. Ky termin zakonisht përdoret për të emërtuar e-postën e dërguar e cila nuk i ka informatat dërguese autentike apo të vërteta në kokë. E-posta e tillë duket si e dërguar nga një adresë e caktuar por në të vërtet nuk është. - Wikipedia
