The harasser may post comments intended to cause distress to the victim, or make them the subject of harassment by others. They may pose as the victim and post offensive comments or send offensive messages in their name. The victim may be signed-up for spam, porn sites and questionable offers.

Is it worse if they do that and also perv you constantly?

depends on your point of view, but cyberharassment is no fun. I will probably be pursuing a case soon.

Flower for you.

(Smileys aren't working - computer problem)

What's going on Tanya??? Who is cyberharassing you???

or how about when they seem to show up every where you are and post wherever you post
or even after you block them they create another profile to continue emailing you
or create other 'profilers' to get to you
or threaten to 'know where you live' through your IP address?

my friend that is female went to court today, over things she said on my space, it's no joke,

and it's a real crime,

There is cyberharassment!

Yep!

then how do you make them stop

It all depends on how much information you have about them. The website in the OP has come information that will be helpful.

If you know a name and city, you may be able to contact the local police where the offender lives. If you have a telephone number, even better because the police can track the address with less hassles. Often, some of these individuals don't provide any information and just harass for the sake of it. But you can report them to other sources (check out website in OP). If you know their name and address (or can get the address), you can have a 'no contact' PPO serve to them.

If you want any more info becca, please feel free to contact me by email.

How do they get your IP address and then your address?

what's it matter on the ip ? they change so often,

the girl that was pressing charges,

just printed off the myspace pages,

File charges

and that's just being real with you

wow sucks...i justh ad a crazy guy on my space bug me so much haha

That's one way to stop it. Authorities are taking any cyber more serious.

Isn't it a fact that in some cases, it can fall under federal jurisdiction, with harsher penalties?

Wasn't that the case with the Mom who created the fake profile on MySpace, where the girl committed suicide?

Not sure if I have my facts right, so please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

That happened in my city - St. Louis.

Well with that case, online actions caused a death. I am not sure what the exact rules are. However, if you are being stalked or harassed online, you do have recourse.

I used to talk seriously with a guy on here. He wasn't in the forums THANK GOD. Since I dumped his ass (he was straight up weird and obsessed with me) he's come back in different ways to haunt me ever since.
It's gotten pretty dang scary ..
