Abstract
Method and apparatus for monitoring identity misrepresentation by a user on a network are described. In one example, validated identity information for the user is received from a trusted source.

An identity misrepresentation by the user is detected based on the validated identity information. A notification of the identity misrepresentation is sent to the trusted source.
