Washington — The FBI and Department of Homeland Security issued a rather dire warning to US troops this week, urging them to scrub their Facebook accounts of information that might help Islamic State fighters attack them.

The federal bulletin, sent to law enforcement agencies, tells current and former service members to “review their online social media accounts for any information that might serve to attract the attention of ISIL [ISIS] and its supporters.”
