Police Create Fake Profiles on Facebook and Attempt to Build Relationships Along With Monitor Your Friends and Events

Local agents put on a “digital mask” and pose as “members of the
community,” allowing them to gather personal information about suspects
they consider a high risk of being involved in a future crime or
have existing charges.
