"Do not respond to him, ignore it and live your life. You are a high profile player, such things can happen but you will not be harmed. Can you also enhance your facebook security features, I realised I can access your photos even though we are not facebook friends and they lead me straight to your girl-friend. So change your settings such that only your friends can access them mate."
