What to do if you think you are being stalked.
- Document incidents of stalking
- Stalking Incident Log & Telephone Call Log
- Take screen shots of harassment via social media pages, texts, etc.
- Think about security:
- Personal – be aware of surroundings
- Residential – change locks, residential alarm, notify neighbors (neighborhood watch)
- Workplace – notify employer, co-workers, security
- Vehicle – look around, under, and in car before entering and then close door and lock car and then start ignition
- Look into obtaining restraining order from court
- Be mindful of social media security settings
- Block the stalker/abuser
- Be aware of mutual friends who may share information
- Avoid “checking in” if stalker has history of turning up when you are out with friends.
- Ask others to not tag you in posts, if necessary
- Turn off geo-tagging features
