Jews kidnapped by using Facebook warning
Israel's domestic intelligence agency issued a rare public warning on Monday that terror groups were using popular social networking Web sites like Facebook to recruit, and possibly kidnap, Israeli citizens.
The Shin Bet said in its statement it had "received many reports of terror groups approaching Israelis on the internet offering to recruit them… and possibly kidnap them".
IMO: And probably anyone else might be kidnapped too. I think this must be regarded as more serious than some shock-jock style internet announcements, such as Susan Greenfield's comments on the mentally debilitating effect of internet use. It is possibly at least as serious as the regrettably extremely common use of internet and mobile phones to groom youngsters for sex abuse, torture, and murder.
