In
one case last May the wife of a military member was approached in front
of her home by two Middle Eastern males. The men stated that she was
the wife of a U.S. interrogator. When she denied their claims the men
laughed. The two men left the area in a dark-colored, four-door sedan
with two other Middle Eastern males in the vehicle.
“The woman had observed the vehicle in the neighborhood on previous occasions,” the alert states.
Similar incidents in Wyoming have been reported to the FBI throughout June 2015.
“On numerous occasions family members of military personnel were confronted by Middle Eastern males in front of their homes.”
The FBI’s alert says Middle Eastern men attempted to gain personal information about military members and family members through intimidation. Those family members reported feeling scared.
The alert says the men haven’t been identified and the FBI isn’t sure if the incidents all involve the same men.
