Tensions Flare Over Allegations of Voyeurism and Doxxing in 443 Queen Street Buyers Group

A public Facebook group for prospective buyers at 443 Queen Street, Brisbane is now embroiled in serious allegations of harassment, voyeurism, and doxxing. Several residents say they’ve been secretly filmed from their own apartments, while others claim their personal details were publicly exposed online by the group’s administrator.

Background

443 Queen Street is a high-profile residential development that was under public scrutiny during the building phase due to construction delays and disputes involving certain buyers. The “Concerned Buyers” Facebook group was launched ostensibly as a platform for buyers to express grievances, share updates and advocate for their interests.

According to a number of residents, that mission has derailed and is now causing more harm than good.

The group is public so any of the information written in the group can be accessed with or without a facebook profile. It’s pretty concerning for the members and also anyone doxxed or mentioned without their consent.

Allegations

Residents, who requested anonymity, shared multiple disturbing claims:

• They allege that the group’s admin has used cameras and binoculars to film into apartment interiors, from outside or via adjoining units.
• The admin is reported to have used lift access tactics like tailgating other residents to access floors that she isn’t authorised to enter (to take photographs and video to submit to body corporate)
• Photographs have been taken of personal items on balconies, front doors, and indoor layouts apparently for the purpose of criticism or intimidation.
• One agent residing in the building claims they were publicly “doxxed”with their name, business, address and other identifying data exposed in group posts. These posts were later removed by request of police.
• The harassment then escalated: the admin allegedly shifted to emailing the targeted person to her work email and using other intimidation methods to inflict stress on the victim.

All of these points raises questions about where buyer advocacy ends and bullying begins and whether legal boundaries have or have not been crossed.

Evidence & Observations

Reported evidence seen or supplied by impacted residents includes:

• Screenshots of Public posts, slanderous comments and complaint threads in the Facebook group.
• Listings and business directory entries linking the admin to Mirka Shannon Realty / MIRKA SHANNON PTY LTD.
• Social engineering tactics, such as befriending residents to glean information used later for division or conflict.
• Efforts by the admin to undermine the building’s reputation, including disparaging remarks to prospective buyers and lobby visitors.
• Submissions of photographs taken without consent and sent to the body corporate, urging action against particular residents.
• Notably, the admin herself is an owner in the same building, further complicating the dynamics.
• These behaviours suggest a sustained campaign intended to intimidate, discredit, and destabilize.

Legal & Privacy Implications

Under Queensland law, filming someone without consent in a private setting may constitute a criminal offense (voyeurism / stalking)

The Queensland Police may investigate and affected residents are encouraged to:

• Preserve all evidence (timestamps, screenshots, videos)
• Avoid direct confrontation with the alleged perpetrator
• Report to authorities, providing all gathered evidence
• Report offending content to Facebook (group, posts, etc)
• If licensed or impacted, consider lodging a complaint with the Queensland Office of Fair Trading for professional misconduct
• The Queensland Office of the Information Commissioner also provides guidance on residential camera use and privacy rights

What Residents Can Do

If you live at or have ties to 443 Queen Street and suspect you’re a target:

1. Document Everything 
Capture screenshots, log dates and times, back up the evidence securely.

2. Don’t Respond or Retaliate 
Interactions may escalate or be used against you.

3. Report 
To police, to Facebook and if applicable, to regulatory bodies.

4. Seek Legal Advice
Especially in severe or repeated cases of harassment, defamation, or stalking.

5. Stay Vigilant 
Consider checking security camera policies, seeking restraining orders, or collectively engaging with body corporate actions.

Why It Matters

This saga illustrates how quickly a forum intended for collective buyer support can devolve into a vehicle for targeted harassment. The balance between transparency, accountability, and personal privacy is fragile, especially when the actions of one individual (who also happens to be a real estate professional) compromise that balance.

The 443 Queen Street situation is more than a local dispute: it raises broader concerns about online civility, ethics in real estate and the boundaries of activism that cross into intimidation or defamation.
