HELP ASAP!!!! I am being threatened!


Question Posted Thursday May 16 2013, 8:41 pm

Hi, so I have an Instagram. Recently, I was talking to this girl then a random girl just said I was bothering her.

We got into a conversation, then she said she'd hack me from her family. She also said they'd hurt me. When I ask her what she meant, she said they'd find me, get my number from the cops, etc.

I'm scared. What do I do?! She hacked my friend before. I'm so scared!

Call the police anyway you would be surprised what the Cyber unit can find if they can get into your Instagram account you don't have to put us with this


She is most likely a whack job that gets off doing these things though in this day and age you cannot take that chance. Call the police and report this, hopefully you still have the Instagram. If your local police do not have a cyber crimes unit your state police do.

The making of these types of threats, even in jest, are illegal. It does not matter if you know this girl or not. There is information in the header of the address that the Cyber unit can use to trace the message back to the computer and the user through the Internet host.

A threat has been made. You can not tell if the threat is real or not. In this instance one must assume the threat is real. That makes the threat an assault. Depending on exactly what is said and what the police find on investigation will depend on who whether this person is charged with a misdemeanor assault charge or a felony.

Sounds like someone you need to stop talking too and block. I wouldn't take her threats too seriously as if she has no proof she is just making an ass out of herself. She's just drama
