Can the police do anything about a fake facebook of me? - Nicole - 11-09-2012 10:01 PM

This has happened a few times before and I never really cared, but this girl has fake facebooks of 6 of my friends, my boyfriend, and my sister. This is ridiculous.

No, it is not a Police matter.

This happened to my friend recently,
She phoned the police and the police was able to track
down the Fake - users computer.
But make sure that you're sure of who the
user is - a stranger, or maybe an enemy.
Think twice before calling a police though.

It's not really a police matter unless you are being defrauded.

Your best bet is to contact Facebook at the link below. Scroll down to "I need to report an imposter profile", click on it and follow the instructions. You can do this for your account only as your friends/family will also have to repeat the process for themselves.
