Is it correct? I´m not sure if "to someone" is a prepositional phrase(PP) and if "who actually cares" is a close.

(you) "Tell that to someone who actually cares"

VP Np PP close

S Ditransitive verb Do Io Complement related to the object

Thank you very much in advance.

You can be sure. It is a PP.
facu if "who actually cares" is a close.
You mean "clause", not "close". It's a relative clause. It's not a complement of "someone". It's a modifier of "someone".
