The Department of Homeland Security recently sent out a nationwide warning about a clever prank aimed at outing people who try to report undocumented immigrants. A comedian managed to set up a fake tip line that looked exactly like the real ones used by immigration enforcement, quickly grabbing the attention of millions on social media.
Since the stunt is intercepting messages originally meant for ICE, it has sparked widespread public debate and left federal authorities deeply uneasy. The creator continues to publish audio recordings of callers attempting to surrender community members, prompting an internal memo from law enforcement.
