Issue with being tagged in Facebook comments? - Nicole - 04-24-2014 01:31 AM
I've been tagged in 4 comments on photos by a "friend" on Facebook. Two of them were on a photos on the "WTF Sex Facts" page (I've never had sex with him or even kissed him, by the way). The other 2 were on 2 different friend's profile pictures (one of them who unfriended me a couple months ago when she moved schools to clean out her friends list, but nothing happened between us). He deleted the most recent comment (from today) when I called him out on it and told him to stop. He sent messages saying that it was someone else (who he told me to message because he is a "nice guy"... if he's such a "nice guy" why is "he" doing this?) and when I asked if he would stop he sent a "sticker" of a minion from Despicable Me shaking its head no.
I have screenshots of the comments and the pictures that they were on. Should I wait and see if it continues or get someone involved? If I should get someone involved, who? There haven't been any threats, so I feel like it shouldn't be the police.
Okay, I just went through the comments remaining (3/4) and reported them to Facebook. They're "being reviewed"... Any idea how long that could take? And anything I should do in the meantime?
Just to clarify, I reported them for "harassing me" as that was the best option. If the reports won't do anything (which I figured would happen anyways), is there someone outside of Facebook that I should get involved?
Facebook did remove the comments for harassment, surprisingly. Unfortunately, he was sent a message saying that the comment was removed because "someone" reported it... so he obviously knows that it was me. Oh well. I still have the screenshots if I decide that I need to do something later.

if you go to his profile, on the bottom right side of his cover photo, you'll see a couple of tabs that shows if you're friends, following, message, and then there is a gear wheel with an arrow pointing down. click on the gear wheel and in that menu you'll see the option to report/block him. either report him for tagging you in pics and comments that you've asked him not (you can provide screenshots), or block him completely so that he won't be able to see or find you on FB.

nothing is going to happen from your reports - reporting something just because of the reasons you stated arent against the rules - so facebook will do nothing about it

Just try to block the user. They can't find your profile, even more tagging you.
And for the picture tagging, you can try to remove tag so it won't appear in your profile anymore
