“The creator of the fake Facebook account should be traced,” Nitesh wrote in his complaint.

According to Nitesh, it was only two to three days ago that he came to know about the fake Facebook account.

“Through the fake account opened in my name someone is seeking money from various sources by sending messages from the Facebook ID,” said Nitesh.

Earlier in July this year, a fake Facebook account had also created many problems for Ollywood actor Babusan.

Later, Panikoili police in Jajpur had arrested the fraudster from Khariar area of Nuapada district on charges of cheating people by impersonating as Babusan through a fake Facebook account.
