CHANGING & ESCALATING ICE TACTICS:

Be aware that ICE is changing and escalating tactics. These include the following:


ICE is sending out flyers to offer "food support" to families. Contact VERIFIED local food pantries and organizations online instead!

ICE agents offering to walk groceries to families/people stuck indoors.

Agents are trying to infiltrate SIGNAL community groups, then dox. If you make one, regularly have the heads delete message and use codenames for yourselves!

IMSI Stingrays in use near protests to grab your cell phone number. Airplane mode or leave at home. REMEMBER: if your car has Bluetooth enabled pair to your phone, a Stingray nearby can still find your number if it scans your car!

LRAD (noise weapons) used at protests.

ICE agents are patrolling CHURCH PARKING LOTS and demanding proof of citizenship, especially on church SUNDAYS!

More ICE agents are posing as UBER DRIVERS, CONSTRUCTION WORKERS.

They are contracting with local businesses to use their vehicles (think an ICE agent joined a plumbing business to then use).

They are using handicap parking passes, stuffed animals on the dash of cars so people think they are "local".

They are bringing along orange whistles.

ICE agents trying to blend in more with wearing beanies with pom poms, baseball hats, hoodies with utility jackets, colored North Face/REI/khaki/jeans, less tactical gear.

They are trying to infiltrate corner groups and then send out false information/leads.
