Face to Facebook

New Zealand police used Facebook to track down a safe cracker\burglar. They matched a picture from a security camera to pictures and a video of him on Facebook. Then eye-witness's identified him from the pictures.

In November, Australian authorities arrested five teenagers and made them pay a dine-and-dash bill after the restaurant owner identified them on Facebook.

A man that escaped from a jail in Georgia, used his real name to set-up a Myspace account that he regularly checked at a public library in Philadelphia. The police quickly re-arrested the man.

In Washington, PA, Myspace aided the police in the arrest of a man suspected of stealing two monkeys from a wildlife compound.

In Oakland, CA, Police used Myspace to retrieve the "street name" of a man suspected of killing a star high school football player.

The moral of all this is: If your going to commit a crime, don't advertise yourself on the Internet.

Also, don't commit crimes.
