I have people who are stalking and bullying me, what can I do?

I really need help.. I fear for my safety every day.. since the last week of April 2012. There are two, possible three or four people who are stalking and cyber bullying me. They have posted my personal infromation on a website, and they've been calling me. They won't leave me alone, and I just wish they'd stop.. I'm in dire need of help but I don't know where to help. Every day I fear that someone is going to break in my house, and I don't know what to do.. :( I'm over 18, can the authorities help me..?

I hope I put this in the right place btw

Update:

I reported the website where it contained my personal info, but he just put it up again.

Update 2:

They are posting my address, phone number, my birthday, my family's contact info.. And plus they are saying really horrible things about me.

    Yes report this to the authories.

    The authories can get a warrent to trace who is posting the feed on the site. You can also call the operator or phone provider to put a trace on your phone to see where the call is coming from.

    It could take time. I recommend getting the cheap home alarms for your house (find in the electrical section at Walmart). This way if someone opens your door or window, an alarm will go off. Other then post your information and phonecalls, is there anything else that they have done that has been threating?

    -------------------------------

    Al is right except I was thinking you go in person but calling the Authories works too, just don't use 911 unless they come to your house or threaten they are on there way

    I would contact your Local Law Enforcement in the City or County that you live in. (Don't call 911, this is for emergencies only) Go on the internet and search by naming the City or County that you live in, and scroll down until you find the City or County Clerk's Office phone number. Call them and ask for the non-emergency Police or Sheriff's Office number. Tell them exactly what is going on and that you are concerned for your safety. I would do this as soon as possible before it gets out of hand, and becomes an emergency. I hope this helps!

    What personal info are they posting? If it's public information, then there's nothing illegal about them posting it. If they are violating your privacy by doing so, then document it for future litigation.

    If someone keeps calling you after you've told them not to, that's harrasment. I would call the police and tell them what's been going on.
