QUESTION

What if a person post false statements on Facebook about me.

Asked on Jul 18th, 2015 on Libel, Slander and Defamation - Florida
More details to this question:
This person is posting false statements about me. Said I have hacked his phone/computer/etc and sent out messages claiming to have been him. He does not use my name on facebook however the users ask who is this person and his friend writes I will send it to you. I am not able to see his posts, a concerned friend shows them to me. Do I file a report to get him to stop even though he hasn't used my name on the site? It is getting worse.

Absent either taking legal action or at least sending a cease and desist letter from a lawyer, it is unlikely that Facebook will help you deal with personal issues. You may want to retain a lawyer to address this if it cant simply be ignored.
