Cheating evil: Chechen women con ISIS by posing as wannabe terror brides
Fox News ^ | July 30, 2015 | Fox News Staff

Three young Chechen women who reportedly conned ISIS out of plane fare by posing as prospective jihadi brides are under arrest and facing prosecution for cheating the black-clad terrorist army out of $3,300.

The women phished in their gullible would-be hosts, creating fake social media accounts and letting the terrorists believe they were willing to leave their homes and families for Syria. Once ISIS militants had sent the funds, the women promptly deleted their accounts and pocketed the money, according to Russian news organization Moskovsky Komsomolets. But despite ISIS being an international scourge, prosecutors in Chechnya are looking to put the screws to the clever con-women.

part of the problem I believe is that if you look at who is prosecuting you will find that they are Muslim men and possible isis sympathizer. most of those living in Chechnya are Muslim. if theses women had coned some stupid American into thinking he was getting a foreign bride nothing would of happened.

Yep, I saw the humor and irony in the Chechen connection, that was the primary reason for posting it.

I personally think that home land security should find some savvy college girls and hire them to talk to theses men in isis to get Intel and to distract them from naïve girls that might fall for there baloney. pay the college kids a wage and allow them to keep what ever beer money they can con out of theses bozos.

From the article:

“While the money transfer appears to have been a ruse all along, one of the women told Life News she actually considered following through until she thought about others who had made the trip.”

This makes it sound like the women ARE terrorist sympathizers. Just because they conned terrorists doesn’t mean they don’t share jihadist ideology with them.

Authorities don’t want people contacting terrorists for any reason.

Wait, ...you plan to look in the American University system for these girls? What majors, maybe Ethnic Studies, or Women's studies, Liberation Theology, Climate Science, Symphonic Didgeridoo???

I think I see a problem here.

my question for you is this . this was a con and was successful one also. I don’t think that the women contacted the authorities. so some one actually complained to the police about this. I figure that the intelligence agencies probably monitored this but they are not going to contact the police on this because they don’t want to give away anything on how much they monitor the web. I am thinking that one of the terrorist had contacts in the police department in Chechnya and the police confronted the girls about the con and the girls admitted to it.

there are some conservative girls going to school that would get a kick out of doing this sort of work. you need a university degree to even be considered for the FBI and the CIA. if I wanted to work in those agencies saying I participated in conning isis for homeland security would help you get in to theses agencies when you graduated.

Yes, I see a problem .. how about the slaughter of the girl’s entire family - on U.S. Soil ..???????

This is a totally stupid idea and I hope there are no young ladies in America who will be foolish enough to try it. Being so ignorant as to put the lives of your whole family in jeopardy; parents better be on the lookout for this.

I hope these young women don’t lose their lives over this. Many Chechens support and are fighting for ISIS. Chechens also support honor killings of “disobedient” women.

On the serious side about internet exploits, anything put on the web is there forever, as is the trail back to the poster.

You can be identified and you can be found by someone with enough skill. Further, the governmental agencies that may offer you security for your exploits do not have the ability to actually deliver that security.

It would be unwise for young women to engage in any of these decoy activities, they simply don't yet have the tools to be reasonably safe in doing so.
