Jokes and Pranks: Predator Caught By Kids

Thursday April 6, 2006
Predator at MySpace.com caught by three kids pulling a prank on a friend.

There are these 3 kids. They create a fictitious account on MySpace pretending to be a girl so they can make this other friend of theirs think that this girl likes him. This is how they enter the world of online predators. The fictitious girl is contacted by a grown man. When the conversations made a turn for the worse they got a picture of the guy, contacted police and set up a meeting.

They guy was arrested, taken down by 3 teens. Luckily for these kids they thought to contact the police and didn't try to take matters into their own hands.
