Yes, stalking is a type of abuse and is against the law. Trust your instincts and get help if you feel you or someone you know is being stalked. Here are some examples of stalking:
- following someone around or parking close by and watching where they live, work, go to school or take part in an activity
- too many or unwanted texts, emails, phone calls and/or visits
- contacting friends, relatives or co-workers and asking them questions about someone’s actions or whereabouts
- threatening behaviours, like leaving notes on someone’s car, at their home and/or where they work
