Dear owner , if u know the person who made such attempt to contact you using fake ids and mobile sim, u can lodge an FIR against the person narrating the whole incident to police FIR and they will do the needful and necessary step to trap the person and hence take legal action against the same.

It's crime to make Facebook account, penalised as per the information technology act, the action you should take is to approach the local police station and Lodge first information report against the incident, if police have not cyber cell in local location they will transfer it to cyber crime cell, and the investigation shall be started thereafter.
