Negros Occidental files complaints vs people behind ‘fake’ Facebook accounts

BACOLOD CITY—The provincial government has filed a complaint against persons behind two “fake” Facebook accounts of Negros Occidental.

Provincial Administrator Rayfrando Diaz on Monday said the provincial government did not own the accounts that used the Negros Occidental seal and pictures of the Capitol as their cover photos.

One account uses the old Negros Occidental provincial government seal and identifies its page as a “media/news company” that features news stories.

Diaz said they had asked Facebook to block the fake accounts.
