The repeated use of electronic communications to harass or frighten someone, for example by sending threatening e-mails or messages etc is termed as cyber stalking.
It is the express or implied physical threats that creates fear through the use of computer technology such as email, phones, text messages, webcams, websites or videos or through other IT means.
It is a crime in which the attacker harasses a victim using electronic communication, such as e-mail, messages, or messages posted to a Web site or a discussion group.
A cyber-stalker depends upon the secrecy managed by the Internet to permit them to stalk their casualty without being identified.
