    My husband is getting these texts, with friend requests and status updates. The weird part is that he never joined FB. Seems as if an account has been made in his name. Also, the person supposedly requesting him did not send the request. We reported a fake account but FB won’t delete it because “it doesn’t go against their community standards”. Thoughts?

      You should ask more of your friends and family to report it as a fake account. And reporting as a fake account only works when the real person has a real account.

          I don’t think there is and even if there is Facebook probably won’t reply to it.
