Stacy has been stalked for several years. It started in college when the stalker got her Social Security number off a list of grades posted by a professor. They used it to track her down whenever she moves (not threatening to physically harm her, but letting her know they knows where she lives). She said that the Social Security Administration was no help.
Stacy's name has been changed to protect her privacy.
