FBI Alerts Immigration Authorities About Fake Dating Profiles of 'Traditional Wives'

· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)

The FBI has alerted immigration authorities about a group of women creating fake dating profiles styled as 'traditional wives' to lure immigration agents and expose their personal information. An internal memo from the FBI's Chicago office, distributed in February, warned law enforcement agencies that these profiles were created in January. The profiles aimed to attract law enforcement personnel for online or in-person interactions under the guise of dating, with the intent to publicly shame them online. This tactic is intended to deter immigration enforcement activities. The memo was obtained by NBC News through a public records request.
