It is not a crime, but it is most likely a tort (defamation). So that depends on what your definition of 'illegal' is. The government won't come after the wrongdoer, but the wronged person can bring a libel suit against him/her.
NB: The company that provides the web hosting service is immune.
If the person who created the content on the site is pretending to be the person who is being defamed, then that may be an additional tort.
where do i go in the uk if i want to make a complaint about a service because ive been ripped of and have evidence of it?

If the sign says 55, but they won't stop you unless you're going 70, what is the speed limit? Is it what the sign says, or the cop?
