I'm a physician with a very rare name and recently discovered a fake profile with "my exact name, MD" with 75 friends from one (very foreign) country, some fake pictures of someone likely AI generated....all made in the last week or two, clearly a prelude to some form of scam or reputation ruining extortion attempt...and it's impossible to take it down. I've tried. And if you Google me this profile is on the first page.

Someone stole my likeness to harm me or gullible innocent's, this is going to come back to burn me, and there's nothing I can do.

Cool dystopia!

If you own the pictures, or know who does.. arrange a DMCA? There's also several new laws about misusing some bodies likeness. (One thing everybody can pat AI on the back for)

I too have seen "my exact name" clones on Facebook both for myself and family members. Last I checked they were generic photos but that was pre-AI. I reported them and moved on. I haven't materially used Facebook in years since then, though.
