QUESTION 1 Mr. Tom is a businessman who owns a
pharmaceutical company (Pharmcare (Pty) Ltd) in Pretoria,
South Africa. His business is thriving and one day as he is
scrolling through social media, he is shocked to find out that a
fake profile has been set up in his name on a social media
platform. The fake profile was set up for Mr. Tom and includes
information such as his date and place of birth, relationship
status and religious views. There is also a fake group linked to
the fake profile. It contains statements defamatory of him and
his pharmaceutical business, Pharmcare (Pty) Ltd. It is alleged
that he “owes money and does not pay his suppliers” and
furthermore that he is “not to be trusted since he applies
unethical financial business practices and the products, he sells
in his pharmaceutical company are not of a good standard.” Mr.
Tom consults you as his attorney. Advise him with respect to the
following: a) What should Mr. Tom do to remove the fake profile
from the social media platform? (8) b) Could the internet
service provider (ISP) be held liable for the defamatory

thereof? (7) Discuss in detail by referring to court cases,
legislation (if applicable), and academic commentators. Also

Media Profile
a) Steps to Remove the Fake Profile from the Social Media
Platform
1. Document Evidence: Mr. Tom should start by taking
screenshots and saving evidence of the fake profile, the
defamatory statements, and the associated group. This
evidence will be critical for any legal action and for
reporting the issue to the social media platform.

Social media platforms usually have procedures in place to
report impersonation and defamation. Mr. Tom should use
the platform’s reporting tools to notify them of the fake
profile and the defamatory content. Most platforms have
specific forms or options for reporting fake accounts and
harmful content.
