The Shame of American Racism

Sami Habbas holds up a letter he recently received in the mail from JPMorgan Chase & Co.
in Corona, California, offering him a credit card. The stunned Palestinian-American opened the letter to find a salutation that said: `Dear Palestinian Bomber'.
Habbas, 54, a naturalised American citizen, was born in the West Bank, but moved to the US when he was 3 years old.
Chase Card Services, the Delaware-based credit card line of JPMorgan Chase & Co., was investigating the solicitation

So something smells. My guess is that it didn't originate from Chase. Say somebody receives one of these solicitations, scans it in, then edits it and prints it out, sends it to Mr. Habbas (most likely somebody who KNOWS him). Maybe the envelope was saved? Maybe there is data left intact on the letter, some numbers, etc. that Chase might be able to use to determine who was the original intended recipient
