If I "block" someone on FB, can they still find me/see my name if they do a search on me? - fancypantsy - 04-28-2014 06:58 PM

There's an old "friend" who long story short, turned out not to be a very good friend. So 5 yrs. later she tracks me down on FB, I was pretty surprised....but accepted the silly virtual "friendship". Anyway, all my stuff is completely private from EVERYONE, so in that area is fine. Just got the feeling that perhaps she contacted me out of sheer nosiness overall. I AM going to BLOCK her... HOWEVER--if she does a search on me, on Facebook, after I've blocked her, will my name still be visible when she does a search on me logged into her FB account? Someone said no previously. But I am double checking. I want her to think I deleted my account. No need to have idiotic people like her on my friends list. Of course a lot of it is phony baloney anyway, but don't even want to see her name. She has not changed. (!!!)

No, they will not be able to search you or view any of your content (except for photos that they are tagged in).

Link below is the official help page for blocking from FB
