    Sure, but if you are going to risk a decade in jail for moral altruism, you'll need to verify the OP's story first.

    I don't suspect it for a minute, but... How can you tell that he/she isn't trying to hunt someone down on Facebook and bully them, and is just posing as a victim to solicit assistance.

    I guess what I'm trying to say is that it can be dangerous to take the law into your own hands. If there are real crimes being committed, then it probably best to leave it to the police.
