The US Department of Justice has found that FBI agents used photographs of female office staff as bait for sexual predators.
A watchdog report said the support staff members were not certified to work undercover in this manner.
It noted that the photos could potentially put staff in danger.
In response, the FBI has said it accepted the findings. The agency will change its policies and implement new guidelines.
The report did not specify how widespread the practice was found to be, and it did not accuse the agents of using the photographs without telling their colleagues. slot
The support staff were clothed and had their faces blurred in the images. But the watchdog report noted that the photos could still potentially be copied or shared, putting staff "in danger of becoming the victims of sexual offenses."
