Police issue public plea

Police have issued a public statement warning that this type of “vigilante activity” is mostly legal but some of it treads “precariously close” to criminal activity.

“Creating fictional online profiles using stock photos or pilfered images from another person’s social media accounts could create grounds for an identity theft or identity fraud complaints and/or arrest,” the release states.

“Individuals acting on their own may also create a criminal harassment, public mischief or obstruction offence, if they are overly zealous in their efforts.”

The trend is “a growing concern throughout Canada and the United States,” police added, noting it could also lead to civil defamation lawsuits if allegations are presented online without clear evidence.

“Anytime a member of the public has information on a potential online crime, they are encouraged to report their concerns to police immediately,” police said.

“Independent vigilante investigations create complications for the courts and ultimately subvert true justice.”
