Fraud On Myspace

There has been countless news stories about people using the online social networking site, Myspace, as a playground for child predators, burglars, scam artists and other social deviants. Several attorney generals have also battled with Myspace in order to obtain the records of convicted sexual predators.

Now Myspace may soon be viewed as a victim of its users' actions. Prosecutors are trying to bring fraud charges against Lori Drew, an unstable woman, who used the social networking site to harass a 13 year old girl. The girl later committed suicide, however, Lori Drew was never charged with committing a crime.

Can you imagine that Myspace is now being considered a victim? I hope that other fraudsters face the same fate.
