Abstract
To launch a spoofing attack with emails we need to have knowledge of the techniques to launch an email spoofing attack. Spoofing has been widely discussed in documents on the Internet. Email spoofing is termed as an attack on email users who are sent emails from email addresses that are fake or altered. An attacker may pose as other legitimate user to fool or cheat an user.
