       A man who appears to wear a Scream mask stands next to another one who has a Mexican wrestling mask on, on the side of the road.

       A third person dressed as a werewolf stands in the middle of the road alongside someone wearing a balaclava and a hat.

       The Reddit user shared the picture in the subreddit r/GoogleMaps with the caption "I just found the masked guys in Mexico."

       But Google maps fans are determined that the four masked figures are actually gang members waiting for a ride.

       One commented: "That’s the cartel. You wanna stay far far away from those masks."
