Re: My question is , Is it a crime to pretend to be some one else.
It could be(a crime), depending on the circumstances(including the person you're impersonating or attempting to impersonate) as well as your intent and purpose in the impersonation.
For example, it's virtually always a crime to impersonate, or attempt to impersonate a law enforcement officer.
