i have a friend who at all times uses someones photo on his Facebook page,at some point some of his friend take time recognize him, because the profile picture isn't his real photo so to me i think it is not good to use fake photo on Facebook page, what is your view on this is good to do so.

I share the same view with you. And not only on Facebook but also on twitter and even here on mylot. Some people are claiming that they want privacy. But most of them just don't have the courage to show their face.

@otiant I don't know they have a lot of reasons. Probably they are thinking they're ugly and they don't want to be bullied. I knew one Indian friend who told me he doesn't want people to see his face or where he's from because the moment people do, they avoid him.

I have deleted my personal FB page long ago, but I had to create several FB to do paid tasks on FB (like, votes...). I created fake IDs with fake photos for these pages. I would not do it on a personal page though.

Well people do have several reasons for not using their real pictures, some of them are quite justified too. Someone i know had a horrible experience,a random person copied her profile picture and made a fake profile. With this fake profile that person started chatting with people and took money from some of them, those fools thought they are getting attention from a good looking girl. After that person with fake profile deleted the profile and vanished from Facebook so one of the victims searched for girl with that picture, he found out this girl and accused her of cheating him. In-fact he complained about her to police , of-course she was able to convince cops that she is no way involved and someone misused her profile picture, but imagine the mental harassment this incident caused to her.

It is not good for him to do that. It is definitely a sign if deception.

Is he pretending its him? I have a few friends who just have cartoon photos on their profile pic or even just a pic of their pets. But not one where they are prerending to look totally different. That seemsstrange!
