To become a member of MySpace, individuals are required to submit
registration information – including name and date of birth – and have to agree to
certain TOS that regulate their use of the website. Among other things, the
MySpace TOS [Terms of Service] require prospective members to provide truthful and accurate registration information; to refrain from using any information obtained from MySpace services to harass, abuse, or harm other people; to refrain from soliciting personal information from anyone under 18; to refrain from promoting information that they know is false or misleading; and to refrain from posting photographs of other people without their consent. The indictment alleges that Drew and her coconspirators violated all of those provisions.

From the link provided it’s clear that Drew is being prosecuted for far more than making up a fictitious name–and rightly so.
