Have you ever received a Facebook
friend request from someone who is already your friend? There's no need to be
alarmed. Your friend was not hacked and their password was not stolen.
Your friend is being impersonated on Facebook. Someone has
created a new FB account saying they are your friend. This form of impersonation happens
more frequently and easily on FB than in real life. With FB Impersonations, your friend’s reputation
could be harmed as well.
To solve the problem quickly,
Facebook has developed a simple way for you or your friend to
report the impersonator's account. This solution should close the fake account
in about 15 minutes! Here is what FB says to do:
- Go
to the profile of the fake account.
- Click
on the cover photo and select Report.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to file a report.
