>Identity fraud is the use by one person of another person's personal information, without authorization, to commit a crime or to deceive or defraud that other person or a third person
That does not even sound similar to what is being discussed here.
It'd be useful if you could name at least some of the numerous laws that the discussed behaviour might violate.
Please rate my work on a scale 1-5
This is a huge document that doesn't really seem to contain anything relevant to what we're discussing here.
The euro laws I was able to check seem to have clear caveats like the british fraud act "intends, by making the representation— (i)to make a gain for himself or another, or (ii)to cause loss to another or to expose another to a risk of loss."
I really don't see the usual definitions of fraud applying here so I'm very curious as to which legislation actually might.
