What is Organized Stalking? 

<;

Organized stalking, often referred to as "gang stalking," is a growing phenomenon that involves groups of people stalking and harassing individuals. It has been reported in the media and online for decades, but has gained increased attention in the past few years. 

Organized stalking typically begins with a certain person being targeted, usually due to a perceived wrongdoing or wrong belief. Then, a group of people come together to form what they call a “network of harassers” and begin to systematically harass and stalk the targeted individual. 

The harassment can take many forms, such as verbal and physical threats, cyberbullying, posting damaging information online, and even physical intimidation and violence. Organized stalker can also use other forms of surveillance, such as hiring private investigators to follow the victim or using drones to watch their activities. 

Organized stalkers may also coordinate their efforts with other organized stalkers in order to maximize the fear and intimidation tactics used. They often target their victims by spreading false rumors and will go to great lengths to damage their reputation. 

Unfortunately, organized stalking is difficult to prove and prosecute. Most prosecution cases are brought under criminal harassment laws, but because the behavior is so broadly defined, it makes it difficult to prove intent and cause of harassment. Victims of organized stalking should document, as much as possible, any evidence of stalking activity and then report it to the police.

No one should have to live in fear of organized stalking. If you are a victim of this type of harassment, it is important that you take steps to protect yourself and seek help. Seek out legal guidance if needed and talk to a trusted friend or family member about what is happening.
