“The police are not going to inspect online activities, but we will try to contact people who have logged onto the page,” Li Jianhui, chief police officer in Yuen Long district, told China Daily.
But he said it would be hard to track down every member as many of them may not be based in Hong Kong.
Mr Li said police and education officials would also be working with parents and teenagers on suicide prevention programmes.
Encouraging a person to kill themselves or assisting their suicide is punishable with a prison sentence of up to 14 years under Hong Kong law.
The South China Morning Post quoted Hong Kong’s Undersecretary for Security, Lai Tung-kwok, as saying the government was monitoring the case.
