The fact that his brothers didn't know him, enabled Joseph to use this to his advantage

Genesis 42:9 And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


Genesis 42:10 And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


The brothers denied his allegations;

But Joseph kept up the pretense, saying he didn't believe them

Genesis 42:11 We are all one man's sons; we are true men, thy servants are no spies.

12 And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


Joseph was going to use food as leverage to see his younger brother Benjamin; telling them they won't get anything until they bring their brother back to prove they aren't spies:

Genesis 42:13 And they said, Thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.

14 And Joseph said unto them, That is it that I spake unto you, saying, Ye are spies:

15 Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


Joseph threw them all in Jail for 3 days.

After 3 days, Joseph being a true man of God - let the brothers free to carry food back home; but kept one of them in jail until the brothers returned with Benjamin:

Genesis 42:16 Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies.

17 And he put them all together into ward three days.

18 And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live; for I fear God:

19 If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:

20 But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.
