Super useful. Now if it only were to auto-create a G+ profile and scrape to find some profile pics.

For profile pics: http://randomuser.me/

Is this legal? Unless those faces are fictional drawings, using someone else's face for a fake profile seems way over the line.

That was my confusion as well. They are using actual photographs of people for a randomly generate profile!

If it had checkboxes for all of the social networks, free email providers, and so on it would go a long way toward setting up false identities.

If it could comb death certificates for names and demographic data rather than randomly generating it, that would be even better.

You'd probably make a fortune selling SaaS contracts to criminals in Russia and Washington.
