I am being impersonated

Maryland Jul 27, 2026
Hello Reddit, Someone has made a catfishing account of me on multiple platforms, using pictures & videos I've uploaded online to construct a "realistic" looking account. They've even created a spam and main page! A comment informed me this was happening, and I posted on my platform (half jokingly) that all impersonators would be sued. The accounts were deactivated which means my plans of having it mass reported have met a mute point, but after they were deactivated a different account followed me and reposted all of my content, commented on certain videos, and said they remember me from middle school. When I read the username I recognized the name. It was similar to various accounts that kept popping up after I removed them from my page months prior. However, I have no proof this person is the one stalking me. If I'm correct, the person goes to a school near mine, & we did in fact go to middle school together, yet I've never actually spoken to the person. What should I do? I've been told this person has targeted other people, yet I do not know who. One very weird occurrence: I noticed on the catfish page there was an image I never uploaded (in full) myself. I went to my hairstylist, asked if she ever has, and she had! Which meant the person found my hairstylist as well. Any help is much appreciated, thank you! Location: Maryland, USA
