    Firstly have you got the prove from social media before it's takrn down or removed? Contact CAB for advice and the media provider.. also enquire at DWP maybe at local police for cyber crime. Out walking dog so quick reply. Keep us posted

    Hi

    Take screenshots of the posts by her, that you think relate to you.

    Email the screenshots to Scope for their guidance.

    Post on this site the Facebook group you rely upon.
