24. A fake profile of a woman is created on
Orkut. The profile displays her
correct name and contact
information (such as address,
residential phone number, cell
phone number etc.). Sometimes it
even has her photograph. The
problem is that the profile describes
her as a prostitute or a woman of
“loose character” who wants to have
sexual relations with anyone. Other
Orkut members see this profile and
start calling her at all hours of the
day asking for sexual favors. This
leads to a lot of harassment for the
victim and also defames her in
society.
