You should be able to:

Click on their Profile
At the top right of the screen, next to the MESSAGE tab is a little wheel with a drop down Menu
Click on the wheel and choose Report/Block
You can now choose to Unfriend them and Block them
Additionally, you can report the profile by clicking "My friend is harassing or bullying me"

In addition, if you have details of this person, you can go to the police. Not knowing where you are, I can't give you advice on how your legal system works in your country. In the UK you can report the harrassment and the police will visit the person and initiata a harrassment order against the person. Depending on the severity of what has happened, they have a power of arrest in the UK, even for a single message and a single incident, where they feel that arrest is appropriate. As I say, No idea what country you are in or how your laws of harrassment work, but regardless, I would advise you to talk to the police.

I have a poser named arianne nicole adarna she's using my pictures to be her profile picture.

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is not much you can do. It is not illegal for someone to use a picture of someone else unless this breaks a copyright law. You may have a couple of options you can try to resolve this issue,

If this person is harassing you, you can block them by visiting their profile page and looking toward the left side of the screen. There will be a block option.

You could also contact Facebook Support and see if there is anything they can do for you.

Regards,

How to report abuse from another user on facebook

For example, if you receive a harassing message in your Inbox, you can report the message by clicking on the "Report" link next to the sender's name. If you receive a harassing message from a person who is one of your Facebook friends, you should remove the person as a friend and report the message. Reporting a message as harassing will automatically add the sender to your Block List. You can also use the "Report/Block this Person" link that appears at the bottom of the abusive user's profile.

If you learn that someone is continuing to make abusive comments about you even after they've been blocked, a friend can report that person on your behalf. Reports are confidential and the user being reported does not know that they have been reported.

After a report is submitted, you will receive confirmation that the report has been received and we will investigate the issue to make a determination as to whether or not the content should remain on the site based on our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. A Facebook administrator looks into each report thoroughly in order to decide the appropriate course of action. Go to the following link: http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=13247
