Did you receive a reply from CERT-MU?

Half of the "cybercrime incidents" reported in August were about
"fake accounts". My guess is that it is related to Facebook. I read
a blog article about a fake profile of a president of the republic (
http://www.elandsys.com/~sm/test.png ). Any Facebook user in
Mauritius can tell you whether it is indeed difficult to create such a profile.
