I have a craigslist stalker

Write her back and tell her nicely that you have already sold the item and someone has come to pick it up. If she still keeps up her stalking you may want to block her email, this way she won't be able to contact you. Sometimes people cannot take a hint. So hopefully this will work out.

If I were you I would explain politely (again!) that it has been sold and already picked up and paid for, please stop emailing about it or you will mark her email address as spam so you wont receive any more. Maybe she is a bit senile and keeps forgetting she has emailed you lol. Good luck

Write her an e-mail saying that it has already been sold and picked up, copy it and paste it into like 20 new e-mails and keep sending the same e-mail to her over and over again. Maybe she will get the hint =) I know it isn't nice but I would probably do it!

Does craigslist have a "contact us" button? If they do, I would email her one more time stating you have sold the swingset and that if she continues to email you about it you will be forced to report her. Maybe that will make her understand. Other than blocking her, that is all I know to do. I hate dealing with people like that.. Good Luck!

Check what email server she is using to send you emails and complain to them that she is abuseing the service, they might take her email address away or at least tell her to leave you alone. I wouldn't bother responding in a mean way because she's obviously got a screw loose and would probably sendone back flipping out. You could also bloack her email address and then her emails will just automatically go to your junk mail box. Or if you wanna be funny, you could go to the dollar store, buy an ornament of a chair swing(I'm sure I've seem them before), get her address, tell your having it sent to her COD, pack it in a box and send it off, it may not fix the problem but at least u could laugh about it.

well tell hre that u have alredy sold it to someone becuase of a rush needs of financial....and make your every word clear......just give more patience to here.........

E-mail her back- tell her it is gone- No more- and to stop contacting you on this. Tell her it is bordering on stalking- LOL I think she would stop then. Or you can just ignore her! that might work too! I've never used craigslist before.

I would just block her from my email account so anything she sent to me went directly to my junk mail so I wouldn't be seeing anymore emails sent from her again . I can't figure out why anyone would want to harrass someone about something that was already sold but you never know who you are going to come across on the internet and if you were really concerned about this then I would delete my account and set up a new account and let all my friends have my new account name . It would be a hassle for you to do this but if you were really concerned it would be an option .

I am assuming that she does not have your address, but you could email her one last time and tell her that you have replied to her emails already and that the item is sold, gone,no longer available and that you will not be able to correspond with her anymore. Maybe contact someone at Craig's list also about this issue. I wish you luck. Maybe she is not checking her email or whatever. This is strange and irritating.

The best option is to mark her email as spam. This way, you won't have to deal with her anymore. Her service provider will handle that for you. I;m sure you'll be frustrated but is easier if you just ignore her emails. Good luck! - Lyn

For the most part I agree with what the others have said. I will tell you of one other possibility that might make this whole thing make more sense. I have an e-mail through my ISP that doesn't work for real incoming mail. All that gets through is spam. I've done everything tech support told me to look into but nothing seems to fix the problem. The thing is I don't know how long it had been doing that before I figured it out. I do know that I sent an e-mail to freecycle to investigate why a woman that was supposed to be helping me set up my own group was ignoring me. I wasn't very polite about it because I had put a lot of time into getting the group started and then right at the last step I thought she quit on me. I had been repeatedly trying to contact her but got no response for two months. Anyway, they contacted her and she'd been replying to me every time but her e-mails hadn't gotten through to me. It was then that I found out no one else could get through to me with that e-mail either. So the lesson of my story is LOL...Send her one last e-mail explaining that the swing set is gone and you would like her to stop asking about it. If she sends even one more e-mail contact whoever it is at craigslist that handles these things to report the situation. If you are polite about it by saying that she's been contacting you repeatedly, you've been responding repeatedly, and you don't know if she's not receiving your e-mails or is intentionally harassing you, they will be more likely to look into it and handle it for you by either telling her to leave you alone or letting her know there may be a problem with her e-mail.

Either get in touch with the Craigslist admin, and tell them that she's been constantly emailing you, and is there anything they can do? If not, I would send her one last email, not being nasty, but firm, and tell her for the last time that the Swing set is sold and gone, and that you are now blocking her email address so she cannot continue to stalk you. Thats the only downside to using something like Craigslist. Any crazy person can get a hold of your email address and start sending crazy numbers of emails.

I think the problem is that you keep responding to this woman. First, I would have written 2 email responses to a quack like this. The first one to say the item was sold and gone (like you already did) and the second one to say something like this: "I already told you the item is sold. Please don't email me again about it, because I will not respond. Thank you." If that doesn't work then send her emails to your spam folder. One thing I do when listing things for sale on craigslist is not use my main email address when responding to a potential buyer, but rather use a 'disposable" email address like gmail, hotmail, or yahoo. That way I can just cancel that account if need be.

If you have replied that it is sold and done all that you can, I would just spam-block her and move on. Who needs that kind of aggrevation? Movig while preggos... good luck with that.
