Using a celebrity's picture online?
I used a celebrity's picture as my profile picture. I found it on Google, and I didn't use their name at all, or mine. I didn't use any of their info, but mine. I ended up deleting the account, is this illegal? Please help. And I did chat with a few people.
I didn't use any of the celebrities stuff though. I created a new name for me, it's just a fun thing. I didn't get anything out of it, except for a chat or two, but no money or gifts or anything. I just used the celebrities photo from online. Ads |

Yes it is illegal to impersonate celebrities.
You impersonated a celebrity and people thought it was real. Ads |

Yes that's illegal. The copyright law and the identity theft law would both cover what you did.

It's illegal, but who cares? lol. Noones going to come after you unless you did something huge. Chatting with a few dumb people that thought you were a celebrity wont do anything.
