Very doubtful. I'm not aware of any law that forbids even portscans,

I can't find the related articles but I remember reading something about
a man who was arrested after portscanning a website because he donated
for a relief fund (after Katrina) and suspected it was a scam. I don't
remember if he was indeed charged but he was at least arrested, which is
pretty scary.
