I strongly believe I may need dire help for this...CAN ANYONE HELP ME?

There happens to be an obsessive freak, member of youtube, who has taken a very persitent interest in me. This interest has reached a point of both harassment and implied threat. Who would anyone suggest, I'd immediately become in touch with, in order to make the webmaster or whomever I should reach, in order to report this mad-man?

I have warned him, now a number of times, but he will not take heed to my requests, (at first) to what IS Now - a serious pursuit of me - whether I'd want it or not...AND I DO NOT WANT ANY MORE HARASSMENT OF ANY KIND from this truly mentally disturbed person.

I have made some searches of my own, and this person, has gone through several monikers. One of them, I presume was the first, has had him dismissed from youtube...but he is back again, as another person.

He will not leave me alone, and no matter what I say I'll insist on doing so that he is caught at this...does not seem to alarm him.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO, WHAT I AM TO CONTACT, IN ORDER TO HAVE HIM RECOGNIZED AS SOME OBSESSIVE "NEVER GIVE UP" STALKER?

Please, if you know how I can find some help for this...would you offer such advice to me???

Thank you.

This person sounds as if he is quite crazy!!!

Update:

I'm on it, Roflcopt, the police...I had not thought of that, because I've tried to notify youtube's webmasters as I have Google, but my complaint does not go to them, or they refuse to deal with it.

As well, he's discovered my private email address and has contacted me through it!

I am more UTTERLY disgusted that nothing is being done about this freak, than I am frightened. Okay! the police it has come to be!!! Thank you...some of these people abusing others through this avenue: the internet, make me more sick than they make me angry! But the persistence of this particular "thing" I can no longer withstand! Again; thank you SO, much!!!

Update 2:

Mr. Rico, I have already blocked and deleted the freak...he still manages to come through because he keeps changing identities!

Update 3:

Miracle: the man claims to be from York England! No, there is no photograph of him, just some goofy avatar. I tried searching him out through Google and nothing comes back, except that there's no record of such a person in their files!

Update 4:

Good People: I have managed to locate a www. email address to where I will have to send my complaint!!!

Therefore, I shall return to you upon my receiving an answer, once I've gotten exactly what I need in order to compel this stalker to cease and desist - OR ELSE!!!

TO THE ATTENTION OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE OFFERED ME HELP THROUGH THEIR CARE TO RESPOND TO THIS SITUATION OF MINE!!! I THANK YOU 3!

Update 5:

By the way Roflcopt - Cyber bullying and or harassment, as I've discovered this morning IS punishable by law! International Cyber bullying or/and harassment/stalking is a more serious offense. Good to know, since this particular psycho-sicko is from abroad! I intend to do all which may be needed to "NAIL" that freak. My findings also are: he has harassed other females...I presume that is why his 1st account was zilched! If there is anything I truly resent is the audacity of fools to meddle into the lives of those who do NOT welcome their behaviour AT ALL! Again: THANK YOU!

    What exactly is he doing? You may be misinterpreting his comments. Still, this does sound pretty serious. Can you find out from this guy's profile where he is from? Same country as you? Do you have any personal info on your profile? The last thing that you need is this creeper stalking you in real life. Does his profile have a real picture of him? Perhaps search it on Google or take a print out to the cops and find out if he has a criminal record/ who he is. Perhaps go to the contact us page on YouTube and tell them directly. He may be stalking other people as well. Try to get him removed again. If none of this works, and I wouldn't do this even, delete your account and start anew. This, however, I would not recommend because it would be rewarding him for stalking you. Stalking is creepy. In conclusion: I would try to talk to the YouTube people themselves, to try to get rid of the creeper forever. I hope this helps.

    Very seriously? Internet or not you could go to the police, cyber harrasment and bullying is a felony and they will treat it as such and will be much more effective at finding who he/she is.

    This is why you use Youtubes handy "block" feature.
