Default OT - The harassing calls


"Stormin Mormon" wrote in message
...
I know someone who's getting harassing calls and emails. The angry,
mentally
unstable harasser says "I'll call the police and have you arrested". Even
though, there's no crime committed (by the victim). The calls are getting
a
bit tiring.

I'm thinking there's got to be some way to divert this unstable person's
attention. Give him something more interesting to do. Judo move, back away
and let the attacker hurt himself.

With the collective wisdom of this group, there has to be some creative
answer. I thought of sending the angry harasser an email from a disposable
account (Hotmail?) and provoke the person. Tempt him to make some angry
phone calls (to the number in the signature box?). Number of what? Flower
shop? Fire department? Gay bar?

Need some ideas, folks.


I agree with the others about police involvement. If the victim has nothing
to hide, let the police handle it.

On a side note, when the harasser calls again, keep a nice loud airhorn next
to the phone and put it to the mouthpiece when he calls. His ears will be
ringing for a long time after that.
