Reported criminal conduct that was not investigated - and three prosecutions brought instead.
I reported online impersonation, identity theft and harassment to NSW Police from January 2021, with account links, screenshots and financial traces. The reports were not investigated. I was prosecuted three times instead.
I acted as a private whistleblower - documenting conduct I was experiencing, reporting it with evidence to the authority responsible for investigating it, and following up across multiple agencies when those reports produced nothing. This brief is for journalists and oversight bodies.
In late 2020, before I had filed any formal reports, Surry Hills Police contacted me to say I was attempting to access another person's Windows account. The account was my own - a Windows installation on my own computer that had been renamed to someone else's name and had its password changed. My attempt to recover access triggered a notification that was taken to police. The officer dismissed my explanation, described it as a civil matter, and warned me that attempting to access what he described as the other person's account was a serious offence. That was my first contact with police about the conduct I was experiencing - before I had reported anything.
From January 2021 I formally reported impersonation and identity theft to NSW Police (Kings Cross PAC). The person I reported has never been charged by that command.
