O'Keefe, along with [[Hannah Giles]], posed as a pimp and a prostitute at many ACORN offices asking for housing arrangements to run their human smuggling business while secretly video taping everything.  Unsurprisingly, the ACORN staff gave advice, despite being told by the pair that they planned to smuggle young girls from El Salvador.  Even more shocking is that the pair was given advice on how to avoid paying taxes on the smuggled girls income.  Video excerpts were released, which resulted in the [[U.S. House of Representatives]] voting to end all federal funding of ACORN.  The [[U.S. Senate]], the [[IRS]], and the [[Census Bureau]] also all voted to end funding for [[ACORN]].

Attempting to embarrass and undermine the credibility of CNN, O'Keefe, along with fellow members of Project Veritas, staged a plan to seduce Abbie Boudreau, an investigative reporter for the network.  His accomplice in the plan tipped Boudreau off before the plan was underway.  O'Keefe has attempted to distance himself from the scheme. <ref>http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20018030-503544.html</ref>
