"Feds: Iran Behind ‘Proud Boys’ Email Attacks on Democratic Voters"

Federal officials have discovered that Iranian threat actors are trying to interfere with the election.  Iranian threat actors are behind two separate email campaigns that went out to Democratic voters this week.  The emails contain threats to “vote for Trump or else.” The adversaries tried to make the emails seem like they came from the Proud Boys group.  On October 20th and on October 21st, two specific email campaigns were sent out and threatened Democrat voters in Alaska, Arizona, and Florida.  Iran also distributes other content to mislead voters, including a video that implies that individuals can cast fraudulent ballots.
