I have already commented. The account using my middle name is the imposter account but does have my info. my cell, my account but no profile info or photo. My real account is Cynthia Sweeney. It shows me sailing at sunset. Please get rid of the imposter one! I do not know any passwords now I have had so many and each reset time I got the fake account, ha, ha! I have spent many hours and don’t know what to say to fb but it would be deleted in a second heh!
I had to change my primary email password and still am getting the fake one!!xzcnMNCi3485387845

it gives a lot of inqiusity to unconcern individuals making privacy a talk show.thus creating a world of renown gossipers.
I created a FB group a year ago to organise my old fraternity alumni (our
house got booted off campus 13yrs ago) turns out there was also a FB group
made of mostly younger bro’s 80′s vs 70′s, last week when I logged on I
could’nt see my group just the other one.. which i’m a memeber of also and
the only way to display is was to bring up the visible one and then hit
MORE, and ask to “show older” I’m not the only admin. and there is no
option to upgrade to a new group displayed. and the group is scheduled to
be archived. Any insight?. thanks Steve
