    Just logged in, they received feedback that I was impersonating someone, W to tha T to tha F?


    Had to complete a test on pictures of my friends if i knew them or not, then when i had it complete it told me to make sure i followed the guidelines.

    Any idea on why some fanny would report my profile?

    I think they're having problems with their security. Last month they contacted me to notify me that someone in some far flung corner of the world, can't remember where, had logged into my account on a device that I hadn't used before. I had to change some of my details. Around the same time I was getting emails from Paypal,which I haven't used in at least 7 years, saying someone was poking around with that as well:confused:

    Happened me when I logged on in Spain, it was just because it was a different country to usual.

    Probably just someone taking the p1ss reporting you.

    That usually happens when someone tries too many times to get into your profile.

    Are you any good at impersonating yourself?

    This is my 2nd time deactivating it. I'm never going back. Watched Catfish last night, great docu/film opens your eyes to the madness of Facebook. You should give it a look.
