I found out that someone is impersonating a particular person online?

I'll make this story short. I recently discovered that this person is impersonating someone else online. "She" (dunno who this impersonator really is) used fake facebook and twitter accounts using the original person's pictures and videos.

I thought online impersonation is against the law or something. So should I tell the original person that someone is impersonating her? How do I report this?

    Some states have laws against it. So it depends where you live.

    Yes, and perhaps let facebook and twitter know... Because it's a form of cyberbullying and identity theft...
