Being Harassed - Please help

Hello there everyone, I need advice

My partners and I are being hounded and harassed by a woman he previously dated.
This woman is relentless, she texts, emails, calls all hours. Calls both of our my mothers phones. Calls us at work, she has gone as far as to approach and contact members of both of our families now. We have both had to change mobile number five times between us!
We tried ignoring it at first, but now it is way out of hand and we are thinking of going to the police about it. She just will not stop. How should we go about this? As what she is doing constitutes to harassment.
I have already began documenting everything she has done. Just a few days ago she emailed my brother.
It is now becoming sinister and I am afraid of what she might do next.

Please help

Hi there

How on earth is she getting this info????

In any event as it is a women he has only dated, this is a matter that falls outside of the family law sphere and is a matter for the police.

Thanks for the reply.
Myself and my family members run our own businesses, so our phone numbers and contact info are easily available, this is how she has obtained this information. Somehow she has tracked us down and gotten them this way.

I am definitely going to the police, I just wondered what exactly they will do?
Will they first give her a verbal warning? Hopefully that should be enough to scare her off:unsure:

Ah - yes, I know that story and have that T shirt sadly. The first thing the police will do is have a chat and make clear that action will be taken if she continues. Hopefully that will be the jolt she needs to bring her to her senses.

Good luck with it.

Amanda

Thanks Amanda, I hope this sorts it.
My only worry is that she will most likely play the innocent, helpless victim and it may escalate her actions??

Sounds like someone may have promised her the earth and ditched her after that someone got it's wicked way.

IMHO

Having said that, make sure that you don't respond to the harassment in any way other than calling the police.

Whatever may or may not have happened that is the past, is it not?
I'm sure at some point or another, everyone has fallen for someone who wasnt as interested as they were. Thats just the nature of life. You just pick yourself up and get on with it. You dont then harass and hound the person at every waking hour, approach their family and friends and harass them also. That is ridiculous. So regardless of may or may not have happened this behaviour is unnacceptable. If everyone behaved like this after an unwanted break up, then where would we be?

I have specifically never responded to her at any point, so she has no come back at all.
