A young woman who claims she is Madeleine McCann could go to court in her bid for a DNA test, according to a spokesperson who has been representing her in the media.
Julia Faustyna, 21, emerged on social media two weeks ago claiming she was the missing British girl and shared 'evidence', including birth marks and a defect in her right eye similar to Maddie.
She says she doesn't remember large parts of her childhood and claims she was abused by a German paedophile who looks like someone who was once a suspect in Madeleine's disappearance from Portugal in 2007.

However, doubt has now been cast on her story by her own family in Poland and by police. Julia has hit back and a post on her I Am Madeleine McCann Instagram account takes aim at her 'suspicious' mother.
The post refers to Julia in the third person, suggesting it may have been written by someone else. It reads: “The one thing that will easily bring an answer to everyone is for you to step out of your comfort zone and get into the bottle for DNA and get it done.
“Then the whole world can sleep tight tonight. Now, in front of everyone, I'm typing this to you and people watching this video-- I urge you and your spokesman, to communicate with me directly, to exchange DNA or the evidence to prove that Julia is your real daughter.
"So far, you've denied doing a DNA test, and the world is more suspicious about your behavior as a mom (sic).
“Please help your daughter and help me and my team to end this crazy, messy show that has concerned people everywhere and has caused so much pain around the world.
“Tell your spokesman, as you claim you have, to communicate with me directly.”
Last week, a source close to the McCanns suggested they were willing to partake in a DNA test to test the online claims but that now looks unlikely.
Psychic Dr Fia Johansson, who has been representing Julia in the media, told 7NEWS in Australia that the young woman is definitely “not doing this for publicity”.
She went on to tell them that all she [Julia] wants is for her own mum and dad to do a DNA test with her but they have refused.
Johansson told 7NEWS they are willing to go to court seeking a DNA test order.
Her family have claimed they have proof that the girl belongs to them and is not the real Madeleine McCann.
A Polish missing persons organisation Missing Years Ago released a statement earlier this week from her family on Facebook.
In it, they claimed to have "memories" and "pictures" making it "obvious that Julia is our daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin and step niece".
They also said Julia left their family home and took the photos, and that they don't understand why Julia is making the claims.
The statement added they have “tried to help” her with therapy and medicine - help that Julia has supposedly denied.
Pawel Noga from the Provincial Police Headquarters in Wroclaw, does not support her story, telling Gazeta that the authorities have "ruled out" all possibility of Faustyna's story having any level of validity.
