Ms Markle’s Twitter account was suspended earlier this year, reports suggest.
A Polk County Sheriff Department officer told The Sunday Mirror: ‘There have been multiple reports of allegations of cyber-bullying made.’
The officer, who is working on the investigation, added to the paper: ‘It is a large and widespread investigation and is likely to be a long process.’
No arrests have been made.
There is no evidence to suggest who made the complaints against Samantha Markle.

The Duchess of Sussex’s voice cracked as she revealed she has found it difficult to cope after getting married and giving birth, adding: ‘Not many people have asked if I’m ok.’
On Friday, Samantha Markle branded her estranged half-sister Meghan a hypocrite for this statement and said she couldn’t believe Meghan would have the ‘audacity’ to make such a remark given that she hasn’t checked in on their father, Thomas Markle Sr, through his multiple health scares in recent years.
The latest investigation is not the first time a member of the Markle family has had a run-in with law enforcement.
In September this year, the Duchess of Sussex’s nephew Thomas Dooley was detained by police after he was allegedly seen walking up and down a busy street yelling gibberish and wearing only a small towel – which fell off.
Dooley, 28, was charged with felony resisting arrest, with newly-released video of the incident showing him screaming expletives as several cops try to put him in the back of a squad car.
