Attorney, Mark S. Zuckerberg, has watched his commercial Facebook profile vanish five times in eight years as automated moderation insists he is faking being Mark Zuckerberg.

In his complaint, the lawyer notes he has been practising law since Mark Zuckerberg the tech founder “was just three years old.”

“It’s not funny,” Mark Zuckerberg, the lawyer, said to Indianapolis’ 13WTHR. “Not when they take my money. This really pissed me off.”

The attorney says he has paid more than $11,000 (€10,200) to advertise on Meta’s platforms, only for his account to be disabled while the bills keep rolling in.

Zuckerberg the lawyer, shared a 2020 email thread showing he had been wrangling this mess since 2017. “Also, if you happen to run into the younger, richer Mark Zuckerberg, tell him I said hi and he causes me great aggravation each day.”

His name has been a lifelong curse and a strange calling card. He even set up iammarkzuckerberg.com to catalogue the chaos of being a not-that-Mark-Zuckerberg called Mark Zuckerberg.

“I can’t use my name when making reservations or conducting business as people assume I’m a prank caller and hang up,” he said. “My life sometimes feels like the Michael Jordan ESPN commercial, where a regular person’s name causes constant mixups.”

He gets booked to speak in Las Vegas about bankruptcy law and still cannot escape it. “While speaking in Las Vegas, a limo driver was waiting for me at the bottom of the escalator with a sign for ‘Mark Zuckerberg,’ causing chaos as a large disappointed crowd had been waiting,” Mark Zuckerberg wrote.

The daily nonsense brings misdirected pleas for cash and the odd death threat. When it started hurting his income, Zuckerberg decided he had had enough of Zuckerberg.

“We know there’s more than one Mark Zuckerberg in the world, and we are getting to the bottom of this,” Meta told the 13WTHR.

For now, the attorney owns one corner of search. If you Google “Mark Zuckerberg bankruptcy,” he pops up first, which is quite a flex in his line of work.

“I don’t wish Mark E. Zuckerberg any ill will at all. I hope the best for him, but let me tell you this: I will rule the search for ‘Mark Zuckerberg bankruptcy.’ And if he does fall upon difficult financial times, and happens to be in Indiana, I will gladly handle his case in honour of our eponymy.”
