Teens dressed as Batman lure pedophiles and then put them on YouTube (To Troll a Predator)

VANCOUVER—A vigilante trio of teenagers dressed up in superhero costumes have had their form of justice shut down by the RCMP after they set up sting operations to catch men wanting to have sex with teenage girls.

The teenagers — dressed as Batman and the Flash — posted videos of their confrontations with men arriving at rendezvous points arranged after they posed as 15-year-old girls online.

Using fake pictures they got from the Internet and going on the dating website Plenty of Fish, the teenagers started online conversations, pretended they were teenage girls and arranged to meet the men in public places like a parking lot or a restaurant.

The teens then confronted the men and accused them of being pedophiles while filming the encounter. The videos were later posted on YouTube under the header “To Troll a Predator.”

“You Plenty of Fish?” asked the masked Batman character in one of the videos taken at night during a confrontation with one man.

“Oh my God, what are you doing?” said the man.

“You just got trolled.”

The trio had picked up a loyal following on YouTube and posted four encounters with men they claimed to have caught. In one video, a man at a playground is confronted by the Batman character.

I would post the videos but the RCMP had them removed. The articles says that copies are out there but I can't find them. Besides it is illegal for Canadians to show them because of privacy laws.
