Getting a cache of a facebook post?

Hi there I've seen in the past where users have provided a cached link for a page that has been edited or deleted..I'm wondering can this be done for a Facebook post?

My company recently ran a comp for users to like and share a photo, but have recently noticed strange activity on one of the pics in particular. Up to that point it had been steadily gaining about 10-15 likes per day and then on the last share, I noticed someone had commented for her to PM about more likes. I never thought any more of it until the next day when another entrant messaged me that likes for the pic had suddenly jumped massively. When I took a closer look, all the recent likes bar two appeared to come from Indian and Pakistani users.

The earlier comment about PM'ing for more likes has now been removed and the pic owner has denied any knowledge. We are only a small local company who ran this to try and bump our own coverage within the area so I don't want to make a big deal out of it, but now two other entrants have sent through a complaint about this same photo so I think we need to be seen to be doing something.

Am wondering what is my best course of action here? Is it worth looking for a cache of that PM comment?

    Those are real ? I always presumed they were just a way to get free advertising and that no body would ever win, say, a rangerover, for simply liking a page

    Lol yes I thought the same until I actually randomly won a Make Up set. Think the Range Rovers and Audis are a little less forthcoming!

    The prize is only a voucher to go towards our services so hopefully worth it if it increases our brand awareness a bit.
