Do you happen to know which laws those would be?

The advice provided by GP seems to be "Apply for store loyalty cards and similar with fake information[...]. You could also open phone lines with fake information, ISP accounts and so on."

Well, that article doesn't seem to contain anything useful.

>Identity fraud is the use by one person of another person's personal information, without authorization, to commit a crime or to deceive or defraud that other person or a third person

That does not even sound similar to what is being discussed here.

It'd be useful if you could name at least some of the numerous laws that the discussed behaviour might violate.

Look, you made a really broad claim and I'm curious. Your original comment read like like a confident statement of fact, but you can't seem to be able to point out a single relevant law anywhere in the world.

This is a huge document that doesn't really seem to contain anything relevant to what we're discussing here.

The euro laws I was able to check seem to have clear caveats like the british fraud act "intends, by making the representation— (i)to make a gain for himself or another, or (ii)to cause loss to another or to expose another to a risk of loss."

I really don't see the usual definitions of fraud applying here so I'm very curious as to which legislation actually might.
