How to Handle a Cyber-stalking Ex

A cyberstalking ex isn’t just frustrating—it’s dangerous. Whether it’s through fake profiles, creepy messages, or obsessively watching your online activity, this behavior can feel inescapable.

And it’s not harmless.

If your ex is contacting you after being blocked, using your child’s phone to monitor you, or stalking your digital footprint, it may be time for legal action. In Alabama, cyberstalking can support a protection from abuse order (PFA) and influence custody decisions.

Here’s what you should do:

• Document everything. Screenshots and timestamps matter.

• Lock down your accounts. Change passwords and use two-factor authentication.

• Speak to your attorney. This behavior may justify modified visitation or limited contact.
