We’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about reporting fake profiles for three of the most popular social media sites; Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. We hope this will help you if you should ever need to make a report.

Instagram

What can I do if someone is impersonating me on Instagram?

If someone has created an Instagram account pretending to be you, you can make a report directly to Instagram. Reports can either be made from within the app or by filling out this form. The form requires you to provide an official photo- ID such as your driving licence or a valid passport in order to prove your identity.

What can I do if someone I know is being impersonated on Instagram?

If the impostor account is impersonating someone you’re authorized to represent (e.g. your child), you can report the account using this form.

In most cases the report has to be made from the profile of the person who’s being impersonated, and you cannot do this on their behalf. It is recommended that you contact the person being impersonated and encourage them to report it to Instagram.

Facebook

What can I do if someone is impersonating me on Facebook?

Any accounts that impersonate other people aren’t allowed on Facebook. If someone created an account pretending to be you:

Go to the profile that’s impersonating you (If you can’t find it, try searching for the name used on the profile or asking your friends if they can send you a link to it.)

Click the three dots on the cover photo and select Report

Follow the on-screen instructions for impersonation

How can I make a report if I don’t have a Facebook profile?

If you don’t have a Facebook profile but want to report and account that is impersonating you or someone you know then you can fill out this form. You will need to provide your full name and contact email, and provide the URL link for the impostor profile. You will also need to provide some form of ID to confirm your identity.

What can I do if someone I know is being impersonated on Facebook?

Reports have to be made by the person who is being impersonated or their authorized representative (eg. parent or legal guardian). If you are not their authorised representative then it is important to encourage the person who is being impersonated to report the fake profile.

If the impostor account is impersonating someone you’re authorized to represent (e.g. your child), you can report the account using this form.

Twitter

What can I do if someone is impersonating me on Twitter?

Twitter has a complicated policy in regards to impersonation, as parody accounts are allowed. In order for an account to comply with the impersonation policy at Twitter it must explicitly show that it is not affiliated with or connected to any similarly-named individuals.

However Twitter accounts portraying another person in a confusing or deceptive manner may be permanently suspended under the Twitter impersonation policy.

What can I do if someone I know is being impersonated on Twitter?

You can report any impersonation profile that you believe breaks Twitter’s codes of conduct by filling out this form.

If you are dealing with impersonation issues involving young people on social media and you are a member of the children’s workforce (such as a teacher, social worker, doctor, police officer, coach, foster carer or youth worker) then you can also contact the Professionals Online Safety Helpline run by the UK Safer Internet Centre for advice and support.

If you feel any of the content of the account has broken the law then it is important to contact the Police. Content that needs to be reported to the police includes death threats, malicious communications that might be racist, sexist or homophobic and credible threats of violence.

If a fake profile is being used to bully an individual it is important to report this to your child’s school.

If you are a member of the public (over the age of 13) and need help with reporting impersonation to a social media platform, you can also contact our Report Harmful Content helpline.  They can help with a range of harmful content reporting including impersonation, threats, bullying or harassment, self-harm or suicide content, online abuse, violent content and more.

The internet and online technologies are an important part of children's lives at home and school, providing great opportunities for learning, communicating, playing and creating. As we know, these technologies create huge opportunities for us all, however, they can sometimes be a bit overwhelming, and present challenges to keeping your family safe online.

We go to great lengths to keep your child safe whilst using the internet in school. However, it is recognized by all leading agencies, including the Department for Education & Skills that using the internet can never be 100% safe. We are routinely conducting online safety assemblies and tutor group workshops as well as dedicated units in personal development lessons and Esafety ICT lessons.

Schools across the UK are now closed to most families. We know this is a difficult time for most parents. This page is intended to provide you with support and resources to help you learn about online safety at home with your child.

You're a young carer if you're under 18 and help to look after a relative with a disability, illness, mental health condition, or drug or alcohol problem. If you're a young carer, you probably look after one of your parents or care for a brother or sister.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
If you are a child or young person in crisis, you can call the crisis care line 24 hours a day, seven days a week on 0151 293 3577 but you should only present to Accident Emergency Department if you need medical treatment or are struggling to keep yourself safe in the immediate moment.

GYRO is a collection of youth groups (separated by age) for young people who identify themselves as: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Trans*, or who are Questioning their sexuality or gender identity (LGBTQ+)

We also have a sibling group 'THE* (Trans* Health Education) Action Youth' which specifically supports young people around gender identity.

The group provides age-specific weekly (afternoon/evening) drop-ins, where young people can attend to socialise, meet other like-minded people, take part in informal group activities and receive 1-1 support.

Do you work with other family members?

In most cases young people self-refer, and some do so without the knowledge of their family or carers as they may not be open about being LGBTQ+. We occasionally have contact with parents or carers with the young persons consent, or in an emergency, we will say we are calling from YPAS so as not to put a young person at further risk by 'outing' them. Sometimes a parent/carer needs some advice and staff will do their best to assist.

Do you have appointments outside working hours?

Yes, 1-1 appointments can be made with anyone who would like to know more about the service and /or would like to engage with the groups.

There is also the possibility to work 1 to 1 with a young person with the Information, Advice and Guidance (LGBTQ+) worker on practical support around coming out or reaching a goal or exploring terminology. This service may be more suitable for young people who find it difficult to engage in groups or have a specific need they want to meet.

Where do you see young people?

The GYRO drop-in groups take place at YPAS' Liverpool city-centre location:
36 Bolton Street, L3 5LX (It's between the Adelphi Hotel and Lime Street station)

Do you take referrals directly from children/young people, parents/carers?

Yes - YPAS takes self-referrals, which means making your own referral direct to YPAS.

A young person can just turn up to the appropriate group when it is open, no referral required.

If 1:1 support is needed a referral can be put in via YPAS clinical admin or electronically via http://www.ypas.org.uk/make-a-referral/ and a referral can be made by a parent/carer/professional/ appropriate adult. Consent must be obtained from the young person to have the referral made

What kinds of things do you help with?

We offer information, advice and guidance (1:1 support) on a range of issues relevant to LGBTQ+ young people in particular, including coming out, bullying, sexual and emotional concerns, mental health and well-being, trans specific issues. If additional support is required e.g. counselling, we will refer them within YPAS or onto other organisations. GYRO also operates as a safe social space for young LGBTQ+ people to be themselves without fear of persecution. The groups are alcohol and drug-free and always have experienced staff working on them.

GYRO also offers fun activities such as drama, music, games, art, creating zines etc. They also take part in Liverpool Pride each year and attend other external LGBTQ+ youth activities around the country.

If more specific support around gender is needed we have experienced and knowledgeable staff who run a group THE* (Trans* Health Education) Action Youth on a Wednesday afternoon. They can also offer 1 to 1 Information, Advice and Guidance regarding gender identity issues such as accessing appropriate health care.

What will happen at the first appointment?

For gyro drop-in: Most young people self-refer by attending the drop-in. When they access they will receive an induction including some paperwork and an explanation of how the group works and what it can offer. They will be asked if there are any particular issues they may want support with and if they are receiving any support elsewhere.

If the appointment is for IAG: The worker will have to do an initial assessment which may take up to 1.5 hours. This will involve collecting some personal information and finding out how the staff member and young person can work together to achieve some goals.

What will happen after that?

Young people will be informed about the drop-in opening times and planned activities they may take part in.

For IAG: future appointments may be made to continue working on goals on a 1-1 basis.

It's so easy for young people to share online, that sometimes they might post something and wish that they hadn't.

If your child has posted something that they regret onto Facebook, YouTube, Instagram or another site, you should advise them to delete it from their account as quickly as they can.
What if someone else has posted something about your child?
Most websites provide an option for users to report to them to request removal of 'content' - such as videos, pictures, comments or profiles - that might be upsetting.

It's important to know that making a report doesn't mean the content will definitely be removed.

Most websites, including social media sites, have a set of rules - 'Terms of Use' - which they expect people using their site to obey. You or your child should check if any of the rules have been broken because websites will only take content down if this is the case.

Facebook calls their rules 'Community Standards', YouTube's rules are called 'Community Guidelines' and other sites like Tumblr, Twitter and Instagram have their own sets of rules and ways to report.

You should also make sure your child understands how to report content to the site.

The quickest way of removing content posted by others, is to ask the person who has posted it to take it down - if known to your child.

If your child has been a victim of online bullying and has had a nasty message, picture or video posted about them, you can ask their school for support to help find out who might have posted the content. In addition to your child speaking to you, they may wish to talk to someone outside of the family about what has happened to them and how it made them feel. Let them know that they can always call Childline with any worry, big or small on 0800 11 11.
How to reduce the risk of your child being in an upsetting situation
In order to avoid these sorts of situations in the first place, it's worth sitting down with your child before they start using any website and reading the terms and conditions to learn what is, and what isn't, acceptable on the site.

You should check whether your child is old enough to have an account with a particular social media website. Many sites including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Yubo require users to be 13 years old and will deactivate the accounts of any users suspected to be under this age.
Other tips for increasing your child's online security:

Set their privacy settings to medium or high. Without updating their privacy settings, anyone can contact them and their profile information is visible.

Explain to them that they should not share personal information with people you do not know, such as your address, school, parents name, etc

Children often share their passwords. Know your child's passwords and discuss that passwords are "secret" words and should not be shared with friends.

Children sometimes leave themselves signed in at friend's house on someone else's mobile device or computer. We suggest that you remind them to always be sure to log out.

If your child receives an unwanted friend invitation be sure to ignore the request and also block this person from contacting again.

Play your way to a calmer day

Family friendly relaxation, breathing exercise and activity app.

Chill Panda is a new type of app that allows children and adults to start to understand how their bodies respond to different feelings. To start learning about this you can use the app to take your heart rate, use a simple scale to rate your feelings, and then do some play based activities demonstrated to you by a panda avatar. It aims to enhance self-regulation of emotions by introducing ideas and skills that could help children and families understand the relationship between their feelings, body sensations and different activities.

How does it work?
Increased heart rate and feeling stressed are closely related. By reflecting on your actions and the effect they have on your heart rate you can begin to learn what helps you feel better.

The heart rate monitor app detects your pulse by using the camera on your phone or tablet. As your heart beats, the volume of the blood flowing through your finger tip changes. Chill Panda uses the camera on your mobile phone to capture your heart beats.

Instruction:

a) Follow Panda as he shows you how to put your finger on the camera of your phone
b) The light (the flash or torch) on your phone will come on, it is this light that allows us to measure your heart rate. You don't need to cover the light with you finger just the camera.
c) Wait and Panda will take your heart rate.

This is not a medical device. Heart rates are shown only for guidance. This app does not replace treatment, if you are concerned about anxiety or depression please see your General Practitioner (GP) or a medical professional.

Camara permission is needed for measuring heartrate and microphone permission is needed for one of the mini-games that requires you to blow into it.

I love this game ❤️

I have anixity and I get stressed easily, my mum who works with kids with mental health issues told me to get it, love it never will delete it

Chill panda

This game is good for those who have anxiety of some sort and are worried about something

I love this app, simple and effective

Great as an introductory app for relaxation and mindfulness. The exercises are simple so easy to do with the app or on your own in the future. I like the sounds countdown to the end of exercises which allows you to concentrate on the exercise, ie breathing, relaxing with your eyes closed. Recommended if you're getting back into or new to meditation, yoga (panga!) and mindfulness
