This post is for all those Facebook users who needs to report a fake or fraud profile. You'll be able to report any such Facebook profile that violates Facebook’s terms and conditions or Facebook’s statement of Rights and Responsibilities. There's a hair line difference between a fake and an fraud profile and here we want to understand that because the method for reporting both of them are slightly different.
We are using the term ‘Fake’ here for the profiles that are using fake profile name and if that name is yours (or anyone you know) then that may be an fake profile that's if somebody has created an account to impersonate or imitate you or somebody else.
When I can report?
You can report a fake profile to Facebook whenever anyone violates Facebook’s terms & conditions.
That can be:
Profiles that impersonate you or some other person
Profiles that use your photos
Profiles that list a fake name
Profiles that don't shows a real person
Profiles that have been hacked
How to report a Fake/Impostor profile?
If somebody is impersonating you or some other person, go to his/her profile page an click on “Report/Block this person” link on the left bottom of the page.
Then check the “Report this person” check box and use 'impersonating you or someone else'.
Enter the Impersonated profile link in the box given there and add needed comment that is necessary too.Finally click submit.
However if somebody is using fake profile name then simply use “Using a fake name” choice in the report type and add comments in “What makes it fake” box, click submit.
