Two years ago, someone set up a fake profile for a teacher here. We
completed the FB built-in reporting form and the profile disappeared the
next day without further contact to or from Facebook.

Subject: Re: Fake Teacher Facebook Profile
Tom,
We had a similar incident occur last year and Facebook was, in a word,
useless when it came to taking down the fake teacher profile. Even when
the teacher, who already had a profile, reported it as a fake there was
no movement (by the way you actually have to have your own profile on
Facebook in order to claim another as a fake one impersonating you).
In the end, we pressed the several students who had friended the profile
and it finally came out that one of them had started it and they took it
down. If that had not happened, however, it would most likely still be
up and running, IMHO.
Oddly enough, about the same time we had a Group Page about the school
that was less than complimentary but because they had used the school
logo on their page when we reported it as copyright infringement it was
taken down in less than 24 hours.
Maybe others have had a better experience working with Facebook and fake
profiles than I?

Subject: Fake Teacher Facebook Profile
We recently found out that one of teachers now has a fake Facebook
profile, likely setup by a current and enrolled student.
Of the other students that have requested him as a "friend" we have
asked that they report the profile as a fake. As of right now it looks
like the site has been up for over a week and Facebook has done nothing
about removing the page.
Does anyone know of a way to contact Facebook to either make them remove
the profile or request the email address the profile was setup with so
we can track down it's creator?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
