So I reported a profile on Facebook because it was using my name and my profile picture (and different personal details ripped from someone with my name but a higher public profile). I just got an email to say it's been reviewed and doesn't go against their guidelines.

The profile picture is literally me. From my old website. And it's my name. But that's not an issue?! WTAF?! Can I do anything about this?
