Fake Facebook Profile

There are lots of Fake Face book profiles. It is more than 50% of the Face book profiles are Fake means there is no real person behind the name that was registered. These Fake Profile are created for several reasons like, to keep an identity secret or it was just an alternate account for playing games. But be aware that sometimes Fake profiles are also created with malicious intent, it could be to impersonate someone and destroy the reputation of the real person or to spy on the activities to the real persons friends.

The only thing that we can do about this is to report it.


Before taking action check if you have mutual friends with the impostor, if you do contact them and tell them about the impostor, ask them to report also.

Take these steps to file the report.

Go to the Fake profile, on the lower left click "Report/Block this person" then choose "Fake profile". On the drop down menu choose the profile of the real person. Also check the box of "Block this person".
