Go to the "FAKE" Profile Page and to the right of your cover page Click on ... and select report this profile. It should then list something like Someone is pretending to be me, etc and FB will delete the "FAKE" Profile Immediately. DON"T ACCEPT FRIEND REQUEST FROM PEOPLE YOU ARE ALREADY FRIENDS WITH OR PEOPLE YOU DON"T KNOW.
