Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) took to social media to quell what it calls "dangerous and irresponsible" stories that allege the agency is executing "roundups" of illegal immigrants for deportation.

Untrue, ICE said in a tweet.

ICE arrested nearly 700 illegals over recent operations, saying 75 percent of those had criminal records.

Also true, says ICE: One President Obama operation alone in 2012 netted 350 percent more illegal fugitives.

Obama came to be known as the "Deporter in Chief" after expelling 4,000 in 2012 alone.

ICE also warned that these false reports can have consequences.
