Yesterday, a Twitter user named “Sarah”, who claims to be a 14-year-old girl, tweeted this not-so-subtle message to American Airlines:
Twitter user @QueenDemetriax
“Hello, my name is Ibrahim and I am from Afghanistan. I am part of Al Qaeda and on June 1 I am gonna do something really big bye.”
American Airlines publicly responded:
“Sarah, we take these threats very seriously. Your IP address and details will be forwarded to security and the FBI.”
@QueenDemetriax_ has since changed her public name to demetria and has tweeted several times since American Airlines responded publicly to her “threat.”
The airline later deleted its response to @QueenDemetriax_and issued a statement:
“At American, the safety of our passengers and crew is our number one priority,” American said in a statement. “We take security matters very seriously and work with authorities on a case by case basis.”
I need a lawyer. Any lawyers on here?—

A Twitter user has done what most people know they should never do - threaten an airline with a pretend al Qaeda hoax.
'Sarah', who says she's a 14-year-old girl, tweeted at American Airlines on Sunday, saying she was from Afghanistan and her name was Ibrahim.
"I'm part of Al Qaida and on June 1st I'm gonna do something really big bye", she wrote on the social networking site.
American Airlines wrote back saying they were taking the threat seriously, but then later deleted their tweet.
However it was enough to send Sarah into an online meltdown.
"I was kidding pls don't I'm just a girl pls. and I'm not from Afghanistan," she wrote.
She later pleaded that she was a "white girl" and not a terrorist.
"I'm so sorry I'm scared now. I was joking and it was my friend not me, take her IP address not mine."
@AmericanAir pls pls pls can I do something to make it good pls I'm so scared I'm just a 14 year old white girl I'm not a terrorist pls

Be sure to tell them that you invented the FBI after swing dancing with a transvestite J. Edgar Hoover one night.

This reminds me why I really appreciate Twitter. Not many websites provide users with others' "IP address" and "details," but Twitter has always gone that extra mile.

But the account's handle came with the nickname "Sarah" and a profile image of a young woman. Apologetic tweets were posted to the account after the airline replied it was taking the threat seriously and calling in law enforcement. Ekkers said the motive for the tweet is not yet known. ...
