One option is to report it as a fake account. Fakes are not allowed and there is a protocol in place to get them shut down.

You really should see about getting it killed so whatever asshat did this can't do something malicious with / to your reputation.

I tried. They told me no. Unfortunately it is not a fake account. They don't claim to be me. They only used my email to open the account (probably by mistake/typo). I can block the emails, but that is all. I suspect they have the same name. The picture is of a child. A preteen of the same sex but a different race. I don't know if they no longer use the account or are locked out themselves.
