What is Cyber Stalking?
Cyber Stalking occurs when an abuser, or group of abusers, uses the internet to harass an individual they most often do not directly know. This may include false accusations, monitoring, privacy invasion, making threats, identity or data theft, or gathering information in order to harass. It is a virtual version of emotional and mental assault wherein the abuser harms a victim by repeating unwanted and damaging disruptions into the life of an individual . Cyber-stalkers can be characterized in their behaviors toward their victims by malice, intimidation, obsession, vendetta, or no real purpose in continuing the behaviors. They will also ignore or ridicule formal warnings to cease and desist in their harassment tactics.

What Is Cyber Bullying and Cyber Harassment?
Cyber Bullying and Cyber Harassment are very closely related. They areversions of an aggressive and unwanted behavior that thrives on its intimidation of a victim. The behavior is typically frequent and repeated over time, but can also occur as an isolated incident. It is marked by common abuser actions such as making or insinuating threats, spreading rumors designed to harm or humiliate a victim, attacking their character, talents, appearance and more. This behavior is also seen frequently in groups of individuals banding together to bully or harass their victim for even greater harmful effect and to accomplish a higher infliction of pain on the victim. Making repeated references to an individual in an intimidating, mean, ridiculing, offensive, rude, or insulting manneris cyber-harassment and also can be considered a form of cyber-bullying. The specific distinction between the two is for the most part found in the age group involving the abuser(s)and the victim.

Elements of Cyber Stalking Charges
In some instances, a mere threat is not sufficient to bring a charge of stalking. Many states require a stalker to take some type of action to carry out a threat before they will consider a charge of stalking. Many prosecutors have been able to prove this action by showing how a defendant physically followed a victim, something that is more difficult to prove with a cyber stalking threat.
Even though states have tried to modify their stalking statutes, the passage of new cyber stalking codes has resurrected many of the problems associated with regular stalking offenses. Most states that have enacted cyber stalking laws do not require an overt act or conduct to support a cyber stalking charge. As a result, many current cyber stalking statutes allow defendants to be convicted on the basis of words and speech alone.
