I personally know the girl that this happened to…she was in a taxi and the driver started to talk to her he mentioned he was from iran. he saw she was dark skinned (sfardi) and assumed she was arab. they spoke. as they were talking he was openly anti america/ semitic etc…she plugged in info from his medalion on to her blackberry. when she arrived at her destination she gave he a nice tip and he told her you seem nice stay out of nyc on january 7th. she then took down his plate number and cabbie company and called the fbi. so…it’s true but it could be he wanted to scare her. in these situations better to err on the side of caution. lets just pray for the best here and in e’y shavua tov.
