On Tuesday the 30th august I was informed of a profile that had been set up in my name with a photo of me that had been stolen from my partners profile on Facebook, I did a search and it became clear that the person had blocked me from being able to see it, I used an old account to search and straight away there it was, open to public so I was able to look down the wall and see the kind of things that were being said.
It made me sick to the stomach, this person was carrying out a full character assassination and doing a good job too.
I contacted Facebook straight away and waited to hear back from them, 5 days on and the account is still open. The person responsible clearly knows me and knows a lot about me, they have made a point of contacting people I have’nt seen in years and sending them vile abusive messages and even some to people that I don’t know, I have been getting threatening messages for 4 days now because of this and although I have sent a message to everyone on the friends list of this profile explaining the situation some people still don’t believe me.
I need this profile shut down because this situation is getting out of control and Facebook seem to be doing nothing about it. I would appreciate if you could all sign this and if you could also forward it to as many of your friends and family as possible, I would be forever grateful.
I also want Facebook to suspend all accounts that are reported as fake within 72 hours as I feel the less time the person doing it has the less damage they can cause obviously some cases the profile may not be fake and that is why I say it should only be suspended and not closed, this will give the person who’s profile it is time to send proof of identification.
