Abstract: The present invention relates to an information security bot system for the mitigation of damage upon its victims, or enforcement of Identity Theft laws, by searching and inducing transactions with perpetrators of identity crimes (e.g. identity theft.). Searching is accomplished using a software spider search robot (“bot”) that turns any transmitted personal information in to a bit-keyed array that cannot betray any of the known information of the users. Transactions with perpetrators are induced and affected using machine generated natural language techniques. In instances of success, data (actual, bogus or “poisoned”) is transferred to or received from said perpetrators. This data can be used to protect victims or to ensnare perpetrators. In addition, the invention relates to offensive and proactive prevention of identity theft and other related crimes.
