It depends on your actions when using the profile. In some places it could be harassment if it was negative. Depending on location, there are laws against slander/libel, harassment, stalking, fraud, impersonation, and identity theft.
It is definitely against facebooks policies and probably against policies of your school or work. Google "cyber bullying" and seriously reconsider impersonating someone else online or anywhere.
