A former friend of mine will not leave me and a couple of other friends alone online. She's not doing anything illegal but she does stalk us under the guise of "missing us" and wanting to know what we're all up to. Is this anything I could inform her police about? She's been told numerous times to leave me completely alone but has never respected my wishes for long. She eventually pops up somewhere and will reach out to me trying to get our friendship back. In a way I feel like she's harassing me though I know she really isn't. I've considered reporting her to her local cops (we live in different states) but would they do anything?

Now by stalking you, Do you mean by websites like facebook?...They do have privacy settings and a block button if you really don't want people contacting you. Most websites have blocks or a way to remain anonymous. There isn't a whole hell of a lot someone can do if they are a state away and over the internet anyway.
