Usually (in my experience) people who report a crime have some evidence that a crime has occurred.
Also, how would virgin know who to go after, even assuming they believed us? All we have is an IP, which could be faked. Even assuming the person talking about it was silly enough to fill out their profile with the right details, we still don't know they have.
An analogy: If a stranger used a false name, wore a disguise, walked up to you saying he (or she, as we have no way of verifying Gender either) had stolen a CD player, then walked off, would you report it to the police? How do you think the police would react if you told them that someone you have no hope of identifying nicked a CD player?
