Retarded and ambigous question..
Funny responses though...

I know a guy who got 20 years in jail for using fake Facebook profiles to seduce women. He would get them to do affiliate or CPA offers. One of them turned out to be a lawyer. Last time I talked to him he said imers are at the bottom of the food chain in prison.

He almost never showers now. Horrible stuff.

So the crime was financial fraud.
The fact that he used Facebook is neither here nor there.

He could have seduced them by tying a love letter to a brick and leaving it on their doorstep.

Financial fraud is what it is..on the internet or elsewhere.

Having said that wwwlegal (which tracks internet based crime and prison sentances in the US and Europe) has no record of this (and they are thorough, they have over 43,000 files on record, and it grows by 30-40 a day)

Look folks. If you steal, defraud or whatever, the internet isn't a "magic shield" that will protect you. As far as execution of the law goes, there isn't a country in the first world that differentiates between whether you commit these crimes on the internet or out in the open.

If you prey on women - thats a crime - facebook or otherwise.
If you defraud, that's a crime - internet or otherwise.

First - understand the difference between criminal and civil law.
If you open 5000 wordpress accounts and spam them with your conent you are probably not comitting a crime. However if wordpress decide that the cost of clearing up after you is substantial enough to issue a writ against you for the cost of the clean up...they can.

That's their right in civil law.

Same as if you tip all your garden waste over the fence for your neighbour to clean up. It probably isn't a crime the authorities would persue, but your neighbour could sue you with a civil suit.

Breaking the law is breaking the law - it really isn't that difficult to grasp. The internet makes very little difference.
