Hello. I believe that this is illegal and amounts to an invasion of your privacy. You may have a lawsuit, if you have been a victim of this activity. Certainly, you would have to be able to prove this really happened. If you were to file a lawsuit, you would then have to establish evidence of damages. Will be happy to discuss this further and in more detail.
