We investigate a version of noncommutative QED where the interaction term, although natural, breaks the spin-statistics connection. We calculate e- + e- → e- + e- and γ + e- → γ + e- cross-sections in the tree approximation and explicitly display their dependence on θμν. Remarkably the zero of the elastic e- + e- → e- + e- cross-section at 90° in the center-of-mass system, which is due to Pauli principle, is shifted away as a function of θμν and energy.
