Someone Using Fake Facebook Accounts Sending Hurtful Messages.

My son and I have received FB messages from people claiming to be Rosi Smith and Donald Smith sending criminal information about my husband. I have shielded my children from knowing my husbands past and now this person(s) is strirring up problems by sending this information. We don't know my husbands ex family or his children who have divorced themselves from their father.  They have NO business contacting my son from Facebook and informing him of my husbands situation and causing trouble for us. Can someone please intervene and find out who this is? This happened in the last month to me and this past week to my son. Rosi Smith sent a message to me and Donald contacted my son.   We both blocked them but now I am left to contend with the information that was sent to my son.

If someone has created an account to impersonate or imitate you, please go to the impostor profile and click "Report/block this person" at the bottom of the left column. Check the "Report this Person" box, choose "Fake Profile" as the reason, and add "Impersonating me or someone else" as the report type. Be sure to add a valid web address (URL) leading to the real profile so that we can review the information.
