Iran has been using a phony Facebook profile under the name of “Sara Puppi” in an attempt to gather intelligence and harm Israelis, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) revealed on Monday.

According to the Shin Bet, Iran and its proxies have increasingly focused on contacting Israelis through the Internet in order to recruit them to gather intelligence and conduct terrorist activity.

The fake persona asked what she thought was her Israeli operative to gather information about Israeli figures and assessed the operative’s willingness to harm them.
