What do cyberstalkers/harassers do when the stalk or harass someone?
The harasser may post comments intended to cause distress to the victim, or make them the subject of harassment by others. They may send a constant stream of e-mails and instant messages to their victims or a victim’s co-workers, friends, or family. They may pose as the victim and post offensive comments or send offensive messages in their name. They may send hateful or provocative communications to the victim’s boss, family or significant other (in their own name or posing as the victim). Often the victim’s computer is hacked or their e-mail accounts are broken-into by the cyberstalker/harasser and taken over entirely, or the password is changed and the victim locked out of their own accounts. The victim may be signed-up for spam, porn sites and questionable offers.
Cyberstalkers/harassers frequently follow their victims into chat rooms and onto discussion boards, posting lies and hateful messages, or passing misinformation about the victim. They may create sexually explicit images, using the head of their victims attached to the bodies of porn actors. If they have real sexually explicit or nude images of their victims (usually from a failed romantic relationship between the stalker/harasser and the victim), they may create Web sites posting the images and advertising the site to friends and family of the victim, or supply them to commercial porn sites with amateur image sections for public display. We are even familiar with cases where the cyberstalker has threatened the life of the President of the United States or the Queen of England, while posing as the victim.
In the most dangerous type of cases, the cyberstalker posts the name, address and telephone number of the victim online, often posing as them, and soliciting sexual activities on their behalf. In a California case, a man targeted a woman by posting her name and address online and soliciting group sex. The woman had never even used the computer before, but found herself facing angry, sexually frustrated men at her front door.
Death threats are typical in a cyberstalking situation. In fact, there have been several well-publicized cases in the United States where victims were eventually murdered by their stalkers. Many of these began as cyberstalking situations.
If there is any indication that a cyberstalker/harasser knows where the victim lives, works or how to find them offline, law enforcement must be contacted IMMEDIATELY to begin an active investigation into the circumstances of the situation. WiredSafety's law enforcement division, CyberLawEnforcement.org assists law enforcement in cyberstalking/harassment cases.
Mike Foulks and his cco gang often use cyberstalking as a method for persecuting those that do not share their particular beliefs.
Money, politics, religious beliefs, revenge, hate, and romance are the most frequent motives for cyberstalking. In fact, any situation that evolved from an emotionally packed incident are likely to include an offline component that can pose a real physical danger.
Cyberstalkers with a special grudge against the victim may be extremely difficult to stop. Their anger, jealousy and obsession may foil the common cyberstalking self-defense tips, and ignoring their contact may enflame them even more. No one should attempt to tackle a cyberstalker alone. The stakes are too high.
Don't be a victim! And, if you get the sense that the person may try to stalk you offline, call your local police immediately!
You're at it again - trying to bury discussion about the taxi business. Why do you keep doing this? Is it because you are somebody who works with people who don't want to see cabdrivers organized or helped? Look at the posting you are burying. "Concerned cabbie" is posting about assaults on taxi drivers and you're attacking others and burying it with garage about cyber crimes that have nothing to do with our industry.
One more nonsense posting from you and you'll be banned for a month.
George
Tell it to the investigators who have some questions to ask you about your website and your buddy, Mike Foulks!
Do you think this is some kind of game?
You're trying to bury criminal death threats against Wolf Weiss.
Foulks has also threatened others with physical violence before.
Both of you ARE being reported. Both of you WILL have to answer to these charges.
This has to stop or you will go to jail and your precious little website will be removed from the server by court order if necessary.
George, Four questions from one gentleman to another. 1) Why does Mike Foulks get your endorsement?
2) Was the previously mentioned meltdown a one time only incident?
3) I am starting to think you are of an agressive nature. This tends to scare off others. Do you agree?
4) Is "The Dispatcher" now a monthly publication?
These are serious questions. I can send you my email if you want to answer in private.
Mr. Lutfallah has never "endorsed" me, "Fatlu Hall".
When and how do you believe he did?

Lets start with the nice article and photo of you and Saleem Q. in your new meeting room at the Chinatown Hotel. How about the text listing your qualifications and detailing your office hours. I'm sure I can pull up some of the earlier stuff George has written in the past about you to refresh your obviously failing memory.
As far as the questions go, perhaps they are too "hot" for George. If I have pointed out to George that in my opinion his agressive behavior has scared off some of his would be supporters, I have achieved my goal.
My memory isn't "failing", "Fatlu Hall". It's your vocabulary which fails...
I remember all of the things you want sum up as an "endorsement" by Mr. Lutfallah.
All of the things Mr. Lutfallah published as a report in the Chicago Dispatcher were true.
I think you are imagining "some of the earlier stuff George has written in the past" which you seem to think adds up to an "endorsement". Post and cite your references.
Mr. Lutfallah shares my belief that an organization of Chicago cabdrivers should be open and democratic to all Chicago cabdrivers. We don't agree on much more than that.
He has never "endorsed" me in particular at any point in time.
My "endorsement" comes from the dozens and scores of cabdrivers who voted for me in either CCO election. Mr. Lutfallah didn't vote in either.
I don't think Mr. Lutfallah is looking for "support". If this opportunity he has discovered and is attempting to show to Chicago cabdrivers (the Geoghegan plan) has been somehow slighted by any of his behavior, then your point is valid.
However, I believe it is the behavior of many other so-called "organizers" who have cast aspersions towards Mr. Lutfallah which would be more responsible for any unjust failure of participation with Mr. Geoghegan.
