Legal Question in Telecomm Law in Pennsylvania
internet harassment
After receiving several phone calls from strangers asking me about the car I had for sale, I found out that someone posing as me posted an ad on Craigslist to sell my car, giving out my name, phone number, city, make and model of my car. I copied the ad then contacted Craigslist and asked them to take it down. They did. I asked them if they would be able to provide me with maybe an email address of the person who posted the ad. They did give me the email address since they considered what happened to be harassment. What legal recourse do I have? I have the proof and I know the person that did it (they used their own email address!!) I would at least like to do something to show them that I will not tolerate being harassed this way. Thank you.
