someone put a generic public email for ben on a fake website.
the site is tied to a known troll, many acknowledge its fake but they want to roll with it anyway

That was correct an Antifa sympathizer created the website and admitted to doing it.
Since this prank is going viral and we know he’ll spin it to play victim:
– Ben Shapiro did not set up a fake Antifa site.
– I thought it’d be fun to “hide” his name in the source code.
– I am not acting as a part of any leftist group.
– I did it because I think he’s a turd.— Adam Rahuba (Leader of Antifa) (@adam_rahuba) August 10, 2020
To all of the right-wingers who think that this “vindicates” Ben or your side.
I set up a fake Antifa hotline. Listen to how unhinged and violent the right is.
Trigger warning: racism, homophobia, violence. https://t.co/EVCHaj5k4d

Shapiro called the troll out:
So here’s how this went:
1. Plant my email address in the source code to “prank me”;
2. Watch as idiots take it seriously and both spam me and suggest it’s real;
3. Suggest I’m “playing victim”;
4. Raise money.

And in Shapiro fashion called out those that tried to promote the propaganda:
