Got the profit part. Someone set up a Facebook page using Tyler Perry's name and image, promising personal auditions if you sent $200 via Western Union to some guy in Atlanta.

When Lange and her family began digging, they realized the person using the name Jenny had been stealing her pictures for more than a year, often copying and reposting them within minutes on at least 10 different social media sites since July 2010.
Jenny even had a boyfriend
and her own fans.
Um, how did a fictional person have a boyfriend? I assume their relationship was purely cyber-sexual?

"I felt completely violated. I felt like, 'OK, maybe I shouldn't have myself on the Internet,'" Lange said. The fashion blogger and stay-at-home wife says she dropped 10 pounds in two weeks, felt sick to her stomach all the time, had trouble sleeping and worried about her safety.
Sounds like an AW lawsuit setup to me. Someone in the family is a lawyer, I'll bet $10 on it.

this woman is beyond absurd. she should get an honorary british award for blowing shiat sooooooooo far out of proportion its gone past not funny. fake profiles now equal fearing for ones life? really? that sort of over reactionary bullshiat is what causes people like her to fall victim to self fulfilling prophecies. not being cryptic here, I personally have more important shiat to do than fark with some random whiny attention whore trash, but like someone above said, many dont. good job attention whore of the month, i shall laugh greatly when you get all the attention you wanted, and more!

"I think it should be illegal to do something to somebody like this, to be able to sit behind a computer screen and harass someone and make them feel scared for their life," Lange said.
This woman's vote is worth exactly the same as mine.

This is what you get when you're RETARDED enough to have a Facebook page in the first place.
Volunteering personal information to the entire world, especially to advertisers that have no care for you other than to make a buck, is just stupid, and you deserve what you get.

Swiping photos easily found online & posting them under another name is NOT identity theft. She wasn't trying to scam Lange's friends or family or get any money. What she did is weird & twisted, but not identity theft.
