A very tiny fraction. But I have to assume that most criminals on there would be smart enough not to reach out to the FBI unless they were facing far worse trouble than the possibility of being charged with a crime for this. I could be wrong, there could be criminals dumb enough to expose themselves to prosecution — they are criminals after all — but I would expect them to be smarter than the average street criminal.
