Do you think yahoo answers will do anything about this stalker?
this person has been following me around answering my questions and asking questions with a link to my profile. all because he didn't agree with an answer that I gave him to a question a long time ago. I'm going to leave alot of the details out, but I contacted yahoo answers gave them a link to his profile do you think they will do something about his because its getting ridiculous.
Yes I've blocked this person numerous times. Somehow they create another account and find me again. I put my Q&A's on private also.
I told him to leave me alone, That didn't help the least little bit. That just seemed to make matters worse.
How do I know its the same guy? Because he continued to email me the same thing over and over again. Accusing me of making fun of mentally challenged people. It was a question I answered a long time ago and the answer was an honest answer I said I had regretted what I had did and I now know better.

I had a troll problem a couple of times myself. One accused me of being racist for posting lyrics to a song someone asked for. The person posted the rant as an answer and insulted the person who asked the question as well. Even emailed me. It really hurt my feelings and I had pulled the lyrics from a children's lyrics website! I blocked the person and hid all my contacts so the person couldn't reach them either. I also turned off the email availability for awhile until it died down - that way the person couldn't email me. I ended up reporting troll (with copies of emails and posting) and her answer got taken off. Made me feel a little better.
Some people just have nothing better to do than harass or stalk others for no reason. I'm sorry you are having this problem!

I think it is best to either keep reporting abuse, or just ignore this person's answers altogether. The only reason he does it is to get to you. He wants to upset you, and if he knows he is getting away with it, because you're responding to him, then he will continue. Don't give him the satisfaction by responding. If you ignore him long enough, he will get bored of trying and eventually give up. You have to show him that you are not afraid of him, and that you're above his attempts to get under your skin. You should also have the confidence of knowing that he doesn't have the slightest idea of where you live or where to find you, which means that you are protected from any real threat. I know that what he does is sick, but you have nothing to worry about. I hope this helps.

Now that you have everything private, you should be fine. Hopefully they do something about it. I edited my answer on your last questions and said that if you have the same contacts and you block him, then all he has to do is access your profile through one of his contacts. Your questions and answers are not private to your contacts or fans.

Wow... that's kind of scary. Maybe you should cancel your account and start a new one with absolutely nothing in common with your current one. If he still manages to find you after you've done that, he might actually be watching your house... in which case, maybe you should call the cops. But, how can you be sure it's the same guy if he keeps getting new accounts?

properly there must be extra advantageous than one guy or woman reporting you. i do no longer undergo in recommendations what number yet unles that guy or woman created many debts and saved asserting you have been violating then ya they are able to get your answer taken off using fact they do unlike you. yet one account can no longer rfile you plenty cases. in basic terms as quickly as. additionally particular human beings like that would desire to easily advance up and forget approximately your questions in the event that they do unlike you. becuase in case you're posting valid questions then there is not any difficulty. yahoo in basic terms sends you an automatic violation respond and does no longer examine your question or answer which you published. so as using fact of this human beings can get away with that.

Then change accounts. That's your only choice. Now if he/she finds you still, then contact yahoo.
