    Hi

    Take screenshots of the posts by her, that you think relate to you.

    Email the screenshots to Scope for their guidance.

    Post on this site the Facebook group you rely upon.

    Contact the police and take screen shots of the posts you think are related to you.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
