Perhaps a workaround would be to pick a random celebrity, somebody with a lot of photos online, and upload one of those. Facebook would have no way of knowing

Facebook would have no way of knowing that it's not you, and they aren't likely to complain that you look like somebody else, since facial recognition will likely always pick up loads of duplicates when used on a global scale.

You'd have to seed the account in advance by uploading some photos and identifying them as yourself, and you'd have to be able to find photos that haven't been uploaded to Facebook previously.
