Taliban Using Facebook Beauties To Dupe Soldiers

The Taliban is using fake pictures of beautiful women on Facebook to fool soldiers in Afghanistan.

Australian soldiers are being warned before deployment to watch out for friend requests from attractive women, since they could be Taliban fighters trolling for intelligence.

A review by that country’s government found that this method could help the insurgent group to “capture information and movements.”

Soldiers are also being warned to strip pictures posted online of geographic information which could give up troop locations to the enemy.
