I love finding hidden accounts and secret blogs and I dox just to see if I can (but never post it or interfere with the person otherwise)

Oh no, confession time.
There's a boy that I fell for. I am in love for the first time. So of course now that he's ignoring my mails I dig around in archives, finding out which anonymous posts might be his, finding out what he likes and dislikes and I keep blowing up his mailbox with random stories of me, all with the goal to make him like me.
Seriously I have so many old pictures and data and texts that sometimes I scroll through his folder and wonder how crazy I really am or if this is all kind of romantic?

Digging through the web, finding small links and hints is so much fun though. Because you just keep on finding stuff!

Google, for starters. See pic to google like a pro. Then there's the wayback machine. Sometimes on really old forums and stuff you can find out who was the site admin and just write them a mail asking. Cause surprisingly many keep archives on their own HDDs even when the site gets down.
For reddit there's snoopsnoo and for imageboards there's almost always someone backing it up, too.

Then think about all the data that might be out there, not just usernames also different ways of writing it, backwards googling profile pics and phone numbers, addresses all that might be there. And when the google crawler didn't get the most updated info and now it's gone, always check the Cachelink.

I used to cyberstalk a lot but I have done it less nowadays. I just got a rush from finding out all kinds of info I wasn't supposed to have, that I knew/know about things I shouldn't.

Sometimes I have tried searching usernames or some other words related to them from pastebin to see if they or someone else had dropped for example chats they were part of or were talked about in there and sometimes they had.

i'm not a doxxer, but i do get obsessive about people. whenever i'm into someone, i check their social accounts everyday. and i take screenshots of every single thing that could maybe JUST MAYBE be about me. i check all their friends profiles too to make sure i'm not missing anything. anyways, i did something really stupid and someone noticed my habit. the person basically went to my phone's gallery and saw my thousands of screenshots before i realized and pulled the phone away. all the screenshots were posts she had made. ever since, the person keeps their social media accounts private. they also change their social media accounts aaaaall the freaking time. i mean, changing names to starting all over again from scratch. probably so i wont keep tabs, but i still do. but i don't have the heart to start a fake account to try to see the person's private stuff though. i don't know, i've considered it a lot and it just makes me feel like a creep. just remembering the persons reaction to seeing my gallery… FUCK, it makes me feel terrible.

there was also this person i followed back in the day. i would send anon messages everyday for like two years before they said i was creepy and deleted their account. they do that thing where they change their social handles a lot too, but i keep tabs on her still. she changes her names like every other week but i always find her profiles. i don't send her any more anon messages though. it makes me feel bad.

i don't have any friends. so seeing the way other people have fun entertains me, i guess.

I found a bunch of accounts of people I know irl thanks to a single twitter account, and it amazes me that people aren't careful when posting things online. Basically:
>created an fb account not long ago
>someone from college (let's call them A) posted a link to their twitter account that they use for professional reasons
>I'm curious and check who A follows
>find person B this way, only recognized them because their avatar is a selfie, noticed they post way TMI about really personal things
>B posts their tumblr on twitter
>they post even more embarrassing shit on tumblr, still with their selfies and personal info attached. Even vaguely mentioned me in a post
>B posts a link to their instagram to get more followers
>follows a bunch of people we know irl through highschool or college on instagram, though they don't post as much embarrassing shit as B
>they're all the type of people who pretend they're nice and sweet and having fun all the time online when they're actually entitled obnoxious spoiled brats at the very best irl
It's cringey but also hilarious. I hope they won't find out that I found their accounts. When I think about them I'm glad I don't post selfies and personal info that could make it easier to find me, and I'm also glad I'm mostly lurking on social media and posting on imageboards.

I spent a good amount of time on /cgl/ board cyberstalking people because I had my own problems. I "escaped" to a place where I felt a great high uncovering past posts that made another person's life a hellish witch hunt.

I was scorned and obviously not mentally well; college was completing exams and projects on 3 days of no sleep and only eating a poor diet of cabbage and hotdogs. I only drank coffee. This went on for 1 year. I look back and think it was a bad place to be but I do the cyberstalking way less now. If people want "real" facebook profiles or something minor like that I can find it with ease.

I'm cyberstalking this lolcow on G+ and Instagram. I took 2 days out of my week just to browse through her insane ranting and some of them I could relate like expectations, social pressure, being a virgin at age 25 and some other stuff. Some other people who also cyberstalk her tried to warn her parents when she started going suicidal but had no success.

Do any of you leave a trail of things that are ok to find while hiding others? I keep picturing the situation where someone decides to do this to me but always run into dead ends.

Anonymous 565

I´ve always been a lurker and endlessly fascinated by how much some people share on their open accounts. So for years I´ve been gathering and saving screenshots of irl people and continuously kept going through their social media. My hard drive is like a personal lolcow, I have so much dirt there. It´s like a weird hobby where I will spend hours on end digging through Tumblr or twitter, finding their old blogs and wattpad (lol) accounts. I just like collecting those cringe pictures or text-posts, it´s not like I would ever share them with anyone or post them. So in the end, my work is kind of useless, but as mentioned, it´s basically a hobby now. I do wish I knew how to view someone´s private profile without going through that whole "make a fake account" thing, though.

Wanted to get this off my chest for some time: I used to cyberstalk a girl for a few years and saved most of her photos and blog entries.

I don't know what made me do that. She was very open and detailed about her reclusive life, depressive thoughts and relationships, all of which fascinated me, I guess. It was like reading a stranger's diaries where they pour out their innermost feelings and record every daily thought they have. Her life was quite different from mine, from having a turbulent relationship with another girl to dropping out of school, and I probably found that interesting to follow.

It was a piece of cake to find her social media accounts because she used the same usernames on every website. I managed to dig out her old teenage blogs on Livejournal via her Photobucket's account name, and suspected she posted to a certain Livejournal community with several accounts simultaneously, but each time pretending to be someone else which was more or less against the rules. Every time she remade her Tumblr blog from scratch, I just went through her Tumblr friends and their conversations and always managed to find her new blogs along with some new selfies which I'd religiou1sly save to my laptop. I sent her a couple of anon asks, too, but that was the extent of our interactions.

One time, I tried to find her home address using Google Maps, based on a photo she uploaded of her house in all its glory and her frequent mentions of her small town's name but I didn't succeed. It's incredible what little sense of privacy some people on the internet have, though.

Nowadays, I still check up on her infrequently, to see if she has a new crush or finally moved out of her small town, but sometimes I'd go months without looking up her blog. Honestly, I'd be lying if I said I haven't started to care about this girl in some way although at this point, what can you do? It'd be inappropriate and wrong to approach her out of the blue, pretending you haven't saved every selfie she has posted since 2012 or looked up her house's address.

i´ve been through exactly the same, only I managed to find the girl I was stalking´s house on google earth. I have every selfie, every blog-post and every tag she ever posted saved, and sometime I wonder why. I think the main reason is that I would really like to be her friend, because I feel that we are very similar, but I´m absolutely hopeless at socializing IRL and she has made it clear many times that she´s not interested in people or friends.

I recently had to transfer my huge folder of shame over to a hard-drive, since all the screenshots I´ve saved up over the years finally ate up all of my computer´s memory lol. So I was a bit shocked when I realized that the folder had more than 2000 screenshots/images/archived websites etc. I didn't think it was that bad. I would share some of it, but blurring out names and faces would take time, and even then I´m scared it wouldn't be good enough, and I would hate it if the person I´m stalking somehow saw that some lunatic on the internet is saving their every move.

I´m sorry to hear that, anon. I think for me, personally, some of the reason why I obsessively collect information/stalk people who shares a lot of their personal lives online is because it really fascinates me. Being able to "know" someone without them knowing is a lot easier than actually befriending people sometimes. But I don´t do anything with the information, and I don´t share it with anyone. It´s kind of like hoarding.

Anonymous 726

i've only done this if i have reason to believe there's something interesting about someone worth finding. i used a username and email trail to find several old and really incriminating blogs and ask.fm accounts of the guy i liked a couple years ago, and would probably do the same again if i liked someone and wanted to know more about them/be sure there wasn't anything dangerous about them. it's kind of an addictive rabbit hole to go down, and pretty useful. i think doing what i did a couple years ago saved me from a potentially bad situation.

It's pretty tame but I would visit this Québécoise girl's tumblr often, not weekly or daily, it was random but definitely frequent (about 3-4 years.) I decided to stop because I knew I was taking it a little far and put myself in her place.

I don't really have a reason besides that she was quite gorgeous and I admired her for that. I picked up on a lot of hobbies she had and copied some makeup styles she used. I feel like a huge creep whenever I think of this stain in my memories.

in your defense, I think it´s pretty comparable to being a fan of a female youtuber or blogger, for example, and picking up on their tips and tricks. If you put yourself out there for other people to see, you can´t expect that no one´s going to find your style cute or hobbies interesting, if that makes sense. I don´t think checking up on a blog every once in a while to be particularly creepy

Only if you're using mobile data. If you just try to reconnect through the same WiFi network your computer uses, it'll be blocked from connecting.
The good news is that you only have to do it once- if you join the server from a different IP then you can log in from that account on a banned IP. Have you considered just restarting your router, too? Your IP may not be static in which case you can just get around the ban just using a new account.

Incidentally, you can run multiple discord accounts on the same machine if you just have them logged in to separate private browsing windows, different browsers and the discord app.

Not true cyberstalking per se, but I have way too many photos of Valeria on my phone. She was gorgeous before her excessive surgeries. I hate her as a person, but her look is so cute/hot to me. I used to do the same thing with Britney Spears.

I met this guy and I can't stop stalking his profile. I'll even check his friends profiles to see pics of him that they have there. I've been doing this quite often lately that it's taken up so much of my time. I wanna stop because I know it's just a waste of time to stare and find new pictures of someone but I enjoy it too much.

I feel like the only way to overcome this would be by actually developing a relationship with him where we text and whatnot, but I'm way to nervous to actually initiate things with him.

I posted a vent in /feels/ about this a few months ago, but I've been able to track down almost every crush I've had in the past few years on social media. The latest one I didn't even know the name of, but was able to find his three facebooks via his workplace. It's ridiculously easy since most people have a facebook or an instagram, and super useful for avoiding wasting your time on someone you'd be incompatible with anyway. Because I'm very tfw no bf I still keep tabs on these guys, one who I'm pretty sure experienced a downfall in the time I've been fixating on him. I think he was fired from his job because all he did was post about drugs, then he deleted all the shit off of his socials because someone was using his selfies to gay catfish with. Wild.

There have also been 2 artists I've been able to find after they deleted their blogs and reinvented themselves just by keeping track of their friends'/enemies' social media. Another just stopped posting altogether, but due to remembering their father's name which they posted temporarily on their personal blog, I was able to find their facebook. I just wanted to know that they were okay (they had suicidal and SH tendencies).

One of the aforementioned artists' (ex) friends also became a bit of a personal lolcow for me. She was originally just an average tumblr mtf who posted brash, angry things and vents on her blog, but recently got into hard drugs and prostitution. I guess that's more sad than anything, though.

I kind of wish I was more tehcnology-minded so that I could actually dox. It seems fun.

It’s so nice to hear that other people do the same thing as me. I get ‘fixated’ on online personalities and obsess over finding their personal accounts, old posts and personal information. I don’t do anything with it, I just get a strange feeling of satisfaction and a false sense of ‘closeness’ with them. It’s very hard to explain. One time went as far as finding a girl’s house on Google Maps.

Screen Shot 2018-0…

man, today has been a blast from the past.
pic related.
do you ever look up someone you used to cyberstalk years after you've stopped and find that they've completely changed?
so when i was a kid i was really into femme anime goth boys like in Black Butler and Godchild, and i stumbled across (via myspace) this guy who I thought fit the bill perfectly. He went by ~Xavier St. Valentine~, which to 15-year-old-me sounded super cool and spooky, and he played the piano which was so !romantic!, and he made instrumental electronic music which was extra ~edgy~. plus he took photos like the top left, wearing these black suits and colored contacts and with his long hair blowing in the beach winds at sunset, etc. all of this was like fucking catnip to me back then.

so naturally I started finding all his online profiles/blogs/forum accounts and stealthily acquiring data. he had a musical project with his girlfriend at the time (who was also gorgeous) but once they broke up (15-year-old me was very excited) then he went through an experimental phase where he shaved half his head and started getting into witch-house-type music and also maybe drugs. i suggest this only because his music got weirder and weirder, and the backgrounds in his photos got grungier and grungier, and after a while i stopped being able to find updates on his personal life, so i slowly lost interest.
cue today where i was looking through my computer to find images to post to the guy crushes thread in /img/, and I found a ton of his pictures that I had saved from years ago. curiosity sparked, i went looking for him again. turns out he is now involved in a project/persona called 'Sofia Reta' which involves wearing a plastic bag around his head or these long hacked-up wigs because Sofia Reta is something something all about deconstructing identity markers like sex and age.

tbh his music isn't half bad these days. When he was going by 'Ʌ', he made a track called Revenge City that I'm listening to right now and it's actually quite catchy.
but i'm also slightly annoyed that he's essentially gone completely dark aside from his musical career. as in, i can't find anything about him on any social media platforms, any photo that has his face in it, it's either obscured by face paint/wigs/taken from a distance (or all three) and career things like his bandcamp/soundcloud career pages are as minimalistic and mysterious as possible. they don't even have his real name. Possibly it's Xavier Martin (tbh i would be shocked if Xavier was his real name) but that is ALSO the name of a football player or something so finding any personal information under that pseudonym is practically impossible. it's all very mysterious, and short of actually going to Baltimore and physically tracking him down at a show or something then my ability to learn more about wtf is going on in this guy's life or head is limited.
i do wish i could find more of the pictures that i had saved during the myspace era, but iirc they were all on my photobucket account which is now (since photobucket decided to be assholes) probably lost forever. dangit.

POUNDS-of-BLOOD.gi…

i found an old site that apparently used to contain some of his short films
http://cargocollective.com/arc
(you can tell it's him because email: [email protected]) and .gif related
but the films are all gone now. maybe some of them are on his vimeo but it's impossible to confirm whether they're the same ones. going to try one of the internet archive engines maybe.
It's so frustrating because every time I think I've found anything personal (his tumblr, for instance) then I go there and EVERYTHING is deleted.
the closest i can find is some poetry on that cargocollective site. also the images all have odd titles like POUND_OF_BLOOD.gif so that sounds like something he'd do, too.

I’ve always been unnaturally good at finding things I shouldn’t. I rarely go out of my way to do it but I end up finding “private” accounts and blogs I’m not supposed to know about. I ended up finding private accounts my ex made after we broke up a month ago. Turns out he reconnected with a group of assholes I had cut contact with because they treated me like shit. On the one hand, I don’t care what he does. But on the other hand, I’m angry he’s doing this and I keep wondering if he’s doing it to be petty.

The problem is I know it’s toxic to expose myself to painful things, but I keep doing it. I want to move on with my life and be happy with what I have now but it’s really tough to break the cycle. It’s been a few days since I’ve looked at his accounts, so I’m hoping I can keep it up.

I have the habit of checking the social media of people I used to hang out with to see what they are up to and random people on the internet who I had minimal contact with and was checking up on them in some way

the most "extreme" case of cyberstalking I've done was with an old classmate of mine who greeted me randomly a few years ago and had changed drastically(from obese to thin and very attractive to me)and after a bit he started working at my father's business but not at a place I could see him daily.My stalking was mild till then till I got a weird crush on him the last time I got to see him.then I started stalking him and having annoying obssesive thoughts over him for a while.He isnt super active on social media but I get to stalk on his friends' profiles too so I got to see extra stuff from him.

fast forward to september,he started working for us again and we get to be on the same space and it's super strange to see him most days of the week and pretending i didnt know about his social media and all that.I also got to learn a lot of stuff about his life that he doesnt share on social media which left me at a big state of shock bc I had a different image of him in my head.I have a folder of shame with insta stories and old posts of his that I can't let go of because they are "receipts" of what he has done and it makes me feel good to have such proofs

since he has a gf(which I was partly sure of since he was way to friendly with my at first but then i realised it's just his attitude)I have toned down my stalking in regards to crushing on him but I keep doing it out of habit and to make sure he isn't bullshiting on the things he says and does

it's such a weird situation to be into.I just expected to never see him again or just randomly and the crush would fade.I've been in a weird rollercoaster of emotions-partly-bc of him but I have finally started to ease myself and at least act somewhat normal around him

I have a question, not exactly related to stalking but I didn't find an appropriate thread and didn't want to make a new one. It's a bit weird. Say if you follow someone on social media and they don't post personal info at all (I mean somewhere like a forum or blogging site, not facebook) and somehow you find out it's a person you know in real life, how would you react? Did it happen to anyone?

I'm really good at doxing, finding accounts, social engineering, catfishing and general mischief of this sort. As a result I spend way too much time on gossip boards trying to find a victim I can justify stalking. Sometimes I daydream about being part of a group of semi ethical hackers who fuck with cheaters and scammers. I've broken into social media accounts and email addresses of lolcows and sometimes didn't even take necessary precautions. I need someone to keep me in line or I'll go to prison over petty internet drama one day.

I thought this tall cute blonde guy in my chem class was hot shit and had good fashion sense which made him hotter. I googled enough and found out he had an account for perverts to watch him masturbate,so basically he was gay. I usually know when they are even though it was a heavily Republican city.

How have you been logging into people's emails and what steps do you usually take to make sure they don't find out?

I wouldn’t call it stalking but I have a habit of clipping cvs and random social media pages of people I never met and will never meet in a attempt to map and track their achievements as a guidline/benchmark to compare myself to. Periodically saving their cvs and glancing at their twitter vents every couple of months. It’s not about a inferiority complex/jealousy when comparing yourself to others as opposed to just feeling disappointed in yourself in stagnation despite the opportunities given. Though I don’t do it with people I met from school as it hits too close to home.

Never cyberstalked someone I was attracted too though

Discord is impossible unless you have access to the email account. Logins from new IPs have to be approved first by clicking an email link. If you have access to the email, you can just reset the password. I did this one time when I was in someone's email account and waited until they were asleep, logged into Discord, clicked the email link, then deleted the email (and deleted it from the trashcan too).

In your case it sounds like social engineering is more helpful, trying to find out more details either as yourself or via catfishing. Get them to sign up somewhere, for example a google form if you can think of a way to ask them to participate in a survey, find any excuse to ask for their email address and google it or enter it in social media searches. Once you have someone's main email address you can typically find a lot about them. The photo is unlikely to help you, but you can try the image search on yandex.ru which often finds more results than Google image search. Google all the usernames you know them by. Really play with it, if they're a smartass type then make assumptions about them and phrase them as if you're convinced, they might correct you.

>>1047
Emails are hard and I don't do that regularly, but I've been doing it on and off for years and it keeps getting progressively harder. If you can get in, the provider will most likely alert the user if a recent login was suspicious. Find a VPN with a location close to the person's actual area, IP geolocation bounces all over the place and isn't very accurate, so as long as it's close by they'll probably not notice anything was off. You should also spoof your user agent to get as close as possible to what a normal login would be like. Of course none of this would fool Google or protect you if you did get into hot water, but if your subject reads their emails with an iPhone and Safari and gets notified of a login from their (spoofed) area with a (spoofed) iPhone and Safari then that's not going to arouse much suspicion. You can delete the notification emails if you're fast enough, but Gmail for example keeps a record of logins which the user can view at any time. I definitely don't recommend doing this for fun or out of curiosity, it's very illegal and a breach of trust and very easy to fuck up. I'm dumb for doing it. Emails are kind of the end boss because they allow you access to pretty much everything through password resets, so start with a smaller site that won't flag new logins and that doesn't ask security questions.

And don't do it if you think you wouldn't be able to keep whatever you find to yourself. Don't make it your mission to expose someone or deface their accounts, that's the easiest way to get in trouble.

Disclaimer: I have no actual education (formally or otherwise) in any of this and am just going by what worked for me, I'm not responsible if you get v&. I'm a legit dumbass and this is in no way shape or form good advice. I have no idea what I'm doing whatsoever.

Ayrt, the people that interest me are kind of odd. I only have (sort of) cyberstalked males, no girls. I’d lurk incel/“forever alone” forums until I’d find a post that piqued my interest and then I’d start checking their post history daily. These kinds of accounts are goldmines because it’s where they post all their vents and you can learn a lot about them. These guys are usually interesting to me because they’re usually neurotic but also evoke a sort of sympathy/pity from me. It’s like I almost.. care about them even though they can be really misogynistic at times. I found a guy’s instagram too because it had the the same username, and the juxtaposition was interesting because his insta was so… normie-like in comparison.

There was a fanfic writer I loved who just stopped updating one day. Almost two years later, while I was rereading some of her older stuff, I decided to look up her username to see if she had moved to a different site or switched to an alt or something. Long story short, I found her real identity and saw that she had gotten married a little after she stopped updating. I felt like a huge creep and stopped looking through her shit after that.

It helped that she had an uncommon name and unique username. She used the same username for several other sites, one of them being an abandoned Twitter which had a link to her instagram username. It was private so I wasn’t able to see any of her info, but I could see posts that others tagged her in and found a newer account with her real name attached in photos that had the same girl in them from those other users. So searching her real name lead me to her FB, Linkedin, etc and an article covered by a local news site about her wedding. Like I said I felt creepy and stopped at that point.

Yes, I’ve been hunting info about a previously tumblr famous girl who went from broadcasting her every little detail all over tumblr to total crickets. Most of her accounts are deleted and purged but I found some older accounts that aren’t shared anywhere and are still updating off the radar. That rush of discovering new info is addicting and it’s scary - especially since she has a bunch of weird creeps looking for info on her and posting about her but these are accounts are ones no one else has publicly discovered and outed. I wasn’t around when she was tumblr famous so now it’s just looking up the posts that were reblogged here and there, and hunting for recent accounts just to see what she’s into at the moment. It’s weird because it’s all public info, since I don’t make sockpuppets or anything like that, but it feels so wrong at the same time.

I'm very anal about what pictures/information exists on the internet about me, since its insane how easy it is to gather information about someone with only an email, for example. I've discovered some seriously personal information about people ("secret" blogs, profiles, entries etc), and that's only been through googling names, usernames, emails and so on and following the breadcrumbs. And I don't even feel bad or like a creep, because its all out there in the open. They probably feel safe, since the information doesn't have their real names or pictures attached, but its still linked to them and if I knew I had an old blog or a personal profile floating out there I would not sleep at night.

NTA but a lot of people have one username because it's their identity or it means something to them and they just use variations or different names when the preferred one isn't available somewhere. It's also a big thing for most people who want to "brand" themselves and try to be e-famous.

I do it in moderate amounts, and it kinda makes me feel like a creep. Glad to see that it seems to be so common.

Anyway here's some stuff that works for me:

>>144 is what you start with

Googling the nick with the option site:pastebin.com works well with nerds, as it usually gives you some IRC or other chatroom logs. Those can point you to some communities they are active in.

Reverse image searching photos they posted or their profile pictures is an obvious one.

When you can't find out much about them at all, cyberstalking one of their best friends might give you new leads.

It's good to have a list with their interests and stats ready, in case you find a profile where you're not sure if whether actually theirs.

You can join a chatroom they are in, or some online community to interact with them and stalk them more. Just remember to use a vpn.

>>1050 is good advice, though logging into someone's private accounts is a moral limit for me. It has become more difficult as well, back in the day you could just ask to use their wifi and start up wireshark, but now even the smallest shittiest sites use tls.

Don't forget to listen to some dank hacker music when cyberstalking.

Okay, confession time.
Me and one of my IRL friends had a hate boner for a girl from our city who was in the scene we were. We even found her kink blog and everything and used to make jokes about it to one another. We rarely used to see her irl but we used to stalk her online a lot. We used to get really confused because like, all of her friends seemed to live really far away yet we were like close by and trying to be friends with her but she was just so like, dismissive lol. She just seemed a bit vain and all of her friend's had to fit this 'image' to be friends with her and we just weren't cool enough to be part of the clan lmfao.
We continued to do this for like a good 4 years or something and then we just grew up and were like 'this is kinda stupid' and just realised we were probably just jealous of her online fame.

I know it’s weird but I cyberstalk estranged family members and people who bullied me in school.

>hate my dad, he’s a prolific internet user

>uses the same name everywhere - literally
>after divorce, found his TypePad journal that he made during the 4 years my parents’ marriage started falling apart
>he was having an affair with someone he called ‘wonder woman’ and only mentioned my mother once in passing, he never acknowledged my existence which confirmed a lot about our relationship
>found other places where he commented using the same damn username, like kink and cheater sites
>his ‘surface’ accounts are all religious crap with him in church acting holier than though rambling about politics and gossip

I like using sock puppets to look up people who bullied me or that I just didn’t get along with as their accounts are always lulzy and dumb and it’s interesting to discover how insecure they are, they can’t spell, they’re boring, stuff like that. People post their insecurities online and it changes my perspective on someone who acts one way in public, only to discover they’re not what they seem to be face to face.

It’s made me aware of not leaving paper trails for people to find. I’ve always deleted stuff like LinkedIn, Insta, Facebook if I am not using them consistently, and try to use fake names and make throwaway emails so I don’t have to worry about abandoning accounts.

I don’t cyberstalk as much as I used to, but when I did I would stalk people who were assholes to me, some “popular” people, and this one girl that I didn’t even know irl. I was obsessed with her for a long time and it was because I thought she was so pretty and I wanted to be her.

My obessesion started when I found her on Twitter in 2014. Since then I would keep tabs on her. It got so bad that I would sometimes catfish using her pictures. I also would go through her friends’ social media and her father’s Facebook account just to see more pictures of her.

Anyway, around my late teens is when I forced myself to stop stalking these people. It was hard because I wanted to see what all these people were up to and I wanted to know how she was doing. But I’m doing much better now.. I just hope I don’t fall back into my old habits in the future.

I have a fairly rare first and last name combination but I have almost no online presence with my real name. I would often google my name out of paranoia hoping something wouldn't show up about me (there were some bits they were really uninteresting and lacking in detail for it to matter). At some point this girl with the exact same name in the same country as I starts showing up in my search results. She was in her early teens while I was in my early 20s and I would obsessively follow her online life over the years, watching her become regional champion in some kind of swimming sport and making digital portfolios. I know there's nothing special about any of this but I felt a little connected to my namesake.

I used to stalk my now-BF on Steam. Being Steam friends with someone who has the program open all the time and is sloppy and doesn't hide their status is super powerful.

If your target consistently runs Steam, i.e. they probably have it set to run on startup which is the default behavior, their Steam activity serves as a proxy for when they're at their computer/how long it's been since they were, down to the minute if they last logged on within 2 days.

Steam user statuses approximately mean:
Online: mouse input on a computer running Steam and logged into their account within the last 10 minutes
Away: no mouse input within 10-15 mins
Snooze: no mouse input for at least 2 hours
Offline: computer is asleep/off or they're logged out of Steam or not running the program

At some point I think Snooze turns into Offline no matter what, but I'm not sure. You get the idea though, the statuses off a good degree of detail about when someone was last using their computer. The statuses aren't affected by the user's interaction with Steam or any game, just activity on a computer running Steam, even in the background.

Another piece of info that Steam exposes to friends is amount of time spent playing each game a user has played. I used to look at this info and record changes to see when/how long my now-BF was playing when I was asleep or couldn't look at Steam. I also used this to get an idea of when he went to bed the night before, if I had made note of the time he had in the game he was playing that night before I went to bed.

If you know enough about a person/their friends, you can use their recently played games to get an idea of who they might be talking to or hanging out with recently. Even if you don't know much, you might be able to look at their Steam friends' profiles and see what they've recently been playing. Obviously that sort of analysis becomes a lot more theoretical but depending on what you're trying to figure out, it could open up possibilities to explore of people they might associate with.

Steam has various privacy options so some of this info might be hidden if you aren't friends with a user or even if you are, but it seems like the default is for things to be wide open, even to non-friends, so it's worth looking.

I used to wake up and obsessively check my future-BF's Steam profile, and I would check it throughout the day, to see if he was online/playing games. It would reassure me if he was because it provided some weird/fake/crazy reassurance that he wasn't out with another girl or with friends or not being a loser? Which would make me feel better because I was (am) also a homebound loser. And it would also soothe my anxiety if he hadn't texted me because I knew he was playing games and not intentionally ignoring me. I knew it was pathetic and weird but I have horrible abandonment issues and I tend to get really obsessive over certain friends when I get attached to them, and it's hard for me to control my impulse for reassurance that they aren't going to leave me.


Another way I would stalk him, and have stalked others is via Slack. I was in several Slack workspaces with him, and I knew he always had the Slack app running (another app that people often run at startup, or just have open constantly). So if he was active on Slack, I knew he was at his computer or was recently.

Anonymous 1569

So… does he know you did this?

Anonymous 1570

>>1569

Yes, I've told him about it. He's very aware of my issues so he wasn't shocked and didn't seem bothered by it. We were already close friends irl at the time, and I didn't do anything with the information nor did it change my behavior towards him. It also wasn't a factor in how we started dating. It was just for my own reassurance. When my mental health is bad I get obsessive about knowing what people I care about are doing when I'm not with them/talking to them because I have a huge irrational fear of people suddenly leaving/distancing themselves from me. Having more info gives an illusion of control that temporarily soothes the fear. Not justifying it, I know it's pathological and I need to get a handle on it, just explaining.

For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure Steam allows you hide most of this info. I don't think you can hide your Online/Offline status from friends, but you can just close Steam when you're not using it. I know this doesn't justify stalking but honestly it's hard to know where the line is when people are essentially choosing to make this info available. Nothing about these features or the settings to turn them on/off is hidden.

Haha I never thought someone would find me being a le epic bpdchan interesting but I appreciate it.

I got addicted to stalking people via social media and online/offline/"time since online type" statuses on various platforms in high school when I joined Facebook and discovered Messenger's online/"time since online" system. So many tears shed and hours spent staring at the green dot when I thought I was being ignored by someone who was online, when they very well could have fallen asleep with the FB app open or something. I know it's dumb but my mind just gets ensnared in it because like I said, information = illusion of control even when you're using the information to spin up paranoid daydreams about what another person is doing.

I'm convinced Messenger's down-to-the-minute "last seen" feature is made by sadists though. Normies don't understand that too much info can be unhealthy for some. I used to check that feature to see if my friends were still sleeping (i.e. their status was 6, 7, 8 hrs away) to reassure myself that they weren't ignoring me if they hadn't responded to my text from the previous night or something. This article is about an interesting project someone made to track their friends sleep schedules based on super easy to get Messenger data: https://medium.com/@sorenlouv/how-you-can-use-facebook-to-track-your-friends-sleeping-habits-505ace7fffb6

There are three degrees of separation for people I know a lot about.

>Stranger

There's this one Reddit user whose page I check regularly. She's fairly active in femcel communities and always complains about the same things over and over. She is a very talented writer. I had a conversation with her once (pretending not to know of things's she has written about in her account).

>2nd-degree acquaintance

I also regularly check IG pages/tumblrs of other women that I find interesting, mainly only those who provoke feelings of jealousy in me. I'll try to calculate their body/facial proportions if I can't find their height/weight online (some of them are models), and examples of their art/writing/academic publications/etc. Like another anon mentioned, a lot of people use the exact same usernames for all of their accounts so it's easy to find really obscure accounts (like on myfreediary) that go into stuff that is a lot darker. I do this with ex-girlfriends of men that I've been attracted to, or women who get a lot of male attention despite being average-looking. I found a secret Tumblr this way full of provocative photos and dark thoughts owned by a girl I went to high school with. She posted once about wanting to kill herself and I sent her an anon message telling her not to. The blog was deleted the next day and she is very alive and well (studying linguistics, I believe). There's some tool online that lets you look at only original posts (not reblogs) from any tumblr account. This is a very good way of getting photos of people.

>close friends

I also know about a Reddit account belonging to one of my close friends that I stumbled upon purely by accident a couple years ago (the username has nothing to do with her name or interests). I like reading her posts and comments. She's a lot more open about grievances with her family/boyfriend/friends/children on there, and she even mentioned me once (not by name, obviously). Sometimes I'll say something to her just so I can see her post about it later.

I've also made a fake Facebook account that I use to check up on people regularly. This isn't as rewarding, since people usually know that Facebook posts are seen by people for whom they want to keep up appearances.

btw,, how can i get into """hacking""". not just making connections – should i take cyber security or software engineering, or some other subject?

no one here is actually hacking accounts

you can probably take security courses but real hackers don't have qualifications, it's usually done by mentoring.

Logging into people's accounts while they are asleep isn't hacking. Keylogging is the most hackerish but even then it's just recording passwords.

I've found passwords and emails through pastebins and gotten to the second stage of logging in. Even if you have the right password, emails now a days aren't that easy to get into, they usually detect the strange change of location and device and usually require some kind of extra confirmation.
You're better off finding what websites that email is signed up for and trying the same password.

I still kept tabs on friends for a long time, they (?) are now some whacky quirky ftm demiboy with a partner that is not physically transitioning or presenting otherwise than whitebread dude. I was honestly salty about it for a long time as I felt this friend changed due to spending too much time on manga and koreaboo stuff - nothing wrong with those interests inherently but making that your whole personhood is so strange- literally just went down the manga to fujo to ftm pipeline.

I found and kept tabs on their entire friendgroup through that - twitters, deviantart piss fetish sites for one, even found a community group they were a part of. I also wasn't the best friend either so maybe I couldn't let that go either.

Then I used to keep picture archives of crushes, nothing too creepy just stuff that was already on fb. I also had a "blackmail" folder, just some embarrassing tweets and a picture of an ex in a diaper.

For crushes, I'd use pipl when it was free, reverse image search stuff, never really "hacked" in any way but man do people behave poorly in terms of personal SEO.

On that note, I got a dude I'm curious about but his name is the most common shit ever- think John Doe. what do?

Honestly, this is a sensible thing to do these days.

You have to find something out about him to narrow it down, e.g. hometown, hobby, school, workplace. You can search Facebook for "John Doe London" or "John Doe Microsoft" and get a narrower list of results. You can probably find his LinkedIn very easily from basic information, then check the url to see if he added a username. Same for his Facebook profile. If you still can't find him, find his friend and go through the friends list.

Has cyberstalking ever led to anything positive for any of you?

I had a really bad relationship almost 10 years ago that really fucked me up and I kept tabs on the guy and the gf he had after me out of paranoia and for work related things (we worked together on projects and he tried to sue me for publishing something he assisted me with, while continuing to release things he barely worked on). I did this every half year or once a year. Eventually I found out that he moved to be with his new gf, who happened to live in the same area that I had moved to. I was always paranoid about running into him.
Last year during one of my random checkups I found a link to the gf's blog and clicked it out of curiosity. The blog had been abandoned by then, but the latest post was about their relationship. She detailed that she still dreamed about him abusing her and locking her up and wrote about a few incidents she had with him and how it messed with her even years later. I was so relieved I began to cry. Being with him made me feel so crazy and out of control because he was a schizo alcoholic who gaslit me to the nth degree and believed all of his own lies, it was such a relief to see that the girl after me experienced the same thing. I reached out to her and she was open to having a chat and we talked about everything. She even apologized for hating me at the time (although we never met or even spoke before this) based on things he told her about me. Since then I've finally gotten closure and I'm happy it went so well, even though of course it sucks that he continued being abusive to other girls. She told me that he left her for her own friend and is married now. I feel bad for his wife but I can finally move on knowing I wasn't alone.

It has helped me to get an insight into the minds of people who treated me badly. If you find an account they think is private where they post a lot of text you can easily see connections and patterns. It's never just about you. There's always something more to it than them just randomly being mean.

On the other hand, it can be hard to stop reading and forget about them if you find a live account. They can end up taking up a lot more mental space than they would have if you'd never found them.

Not in the sense of having someone collect info about me or anything like that (that I know of), but I used to have an artsy tumblr blog where I posted stuff I liked, little notes about my day, exchanged asks with friends and such. I had a visitor tracker, as one does. I wasn't a very popular user but got a bunch of followers because I posted my photography and things like that. It was always pretty quiet, I didn't get much attention outside of my friend circle. One day I noticed the views spiking and scrolled through the IP logs and noticed repeat visits from a town where an old friend lived that I had lost touch with. I used statcounter, so you can see which page the user is on, where they
clicked, which tags they're visiting etc. He visited every day, multiple times, often checking in in the early morning, a few times during the day, and then went through different blog tags all night, often going as far as 30 pages back in one sitting. He never reached out though. It could've been someone else from his town, but the odds are small because we live in a small-ish country.

It made me feel more self-conscious about the content I posted, and I stopped posting some things altogether. A few times I wanted to contact him and just casually ask if it was him, but I thought he'd probably just get defensive. I don't even think it's a big issue or creepy, I do it a lot when I stumble upon interesting blogs and it's what they're there for after all. Tumblr specifically was great for getting a sense for someone's personality through the content they shared, text posts, layout choices and all that. So I don't think it's weird to spend a lot of time on someone's blog, it's just that we weren't talking anymore and he seemed to check my blog first thing in the morning and last thing before he went to bed. If he's thinking about me that much he might as well just reach out again. We never had an argument or anything, we just drifted apart.

I assume so but I don't have direct proof, just someone obsessed with me.

Former friend made a long post using my name with some fanfiction he had concocted about us dating. In reality we'd only seen each other once in about 5 years and had barely kept in touch. The fanfiction involved the last time we saw each other.

I sent him an email asking why he was doing it and retold how things actually went. This included me leaving early and soon after telling him I was cutting contact with him for being creepy again.

He deleted that post but then vague posted that I was the creepy one for contacting him and forcing him to delete the post, which I hadn't asked him to.

I haven't had any social media presence since then.

What do you consider your biggest find, anons?

A really long time ago I was dealing with the most irritating person I'd ever met who was desperately trying to be efamous, but she didn't have a good internet connection and so she was always using her friend's computer to upload her "photoshoots" and stored massive amounts of her files on her spare computer. One day she and that friend fell out and the friend sent me the entire folder of the girl's MSN messenger chat logs and all the photos she had stored on her PC, meaning full-resolution unedited photoshoots including all the bad outtakes and unflattering shots. I never did anything with the photos, but the friend whose computer she used posted some of them on /cgl/ when drama threads were still a thing, which I feel bad about now because we were pretty young and I'm sure some pedos enjoyed seeing her scantily clad awkward proto-costhot pics. You bet I searched the logs for my name and mutual friends because that girl loved to shittalk all day long. I found some interesting stuff and most notably the full extent of how big her compulsive lying problem was.

Also one time I was at a birthday party and the host was a giant bitch who spent the entire time putting some of the guests down to impress her cooler friends. I asked if I can use her computer for a moment and went into her browser settings to screenshot her passwords. Later I logged into her account on cringy dating advice forums and read about her orgasm problems. God I miss the times before 2FA

I found the account of someone I used to know by recognising a random picture she posted as being the same as had been on her instagram before she deleted it a while before. The chances were incredibly slim of it happening as there was zero identifying information in the picture, just that I had seen it before and it had stuck in my memory. Her instagram wasn't easy to find either.

She had always acted like she was right about everything and everyone was beneath her. I read her posts and found she often tried to shill her partner's business, pretending it wasn't connected to her. I waited until she did it again and pointed this out publicly. She denied it of course, replying in a really patronising way, pointing out a minor unrelated mistake I had made in my post as a way to discredit me. That just made it more glorious.

I then posted overwhelming proof. She deleted her posting history, the page I linked to on her website, and had my post removed. She then tried to continue using the same account so I replied to her again asking why she had denied it yet deleted things and what a coincidence it was that the website had changed too. She stopped using it after that and deleted her posts again.

I'm sure she's posting on another account now as she posted something and then quickly deleted it (I set up a service to get emails when she posted for a bit). The great thing is that my post detailing what she did still shows up when her name is googled as it's still on my profile and her name is unique.

They are searching for breaches. For example, if Facebook has a breach, someone will eventually post all the emails and passwords on Pastebin (I don’t know why, they just do that). That anon then googles their friend’s email address or searches for it on Pastebin. They can then log into their Facebook account and try the same details for other sites that person might use.

If you have someone's full name and phone number, you might be able to call their service provider and get their address. (You can use simple one-click tools to go from phone number to provider, just look it up.) Same goes with just IP and name, but that still depends greatly on the particular representative you end up talking to and sometimes the company's policies.

That said, what are you trying to get if you already have someone's address? At that point, you can order them pizza or whatever the fuck. I don't really see how you can dox anyone other than literally getting their SSN and stealing their identity to fuck with their credit and ruin their life.

Redditors will tell you this is impossible, and others will tell you it hasn't been possible for years. Both are incorrect, and I'm willing to bet serious amounts of money neither of these have hung around the types of crowds where this kind of stuff actually goes down.

Literal underage moid teenagers were able to get access to a Twitter admin panel enabling them to Tweet from ANY account simply by doing a little SE for a couple weeks. That's how the Bitcoin scam you might have heard about in July went down. SIM swapping remains easily possible as well, even though people have lost hundreds of millions to it. With all of these security vulnerabilities still present in massive platforms, do you really think it's not possible to con someone into giving you someone's address if you already know much of their information and can make up a reasonably convincing cover story? Look up "isp doxing" to know more about it, including particular scenarios you can give them. I've found that younger moids are very willing to trust you if you're a woman in particular.

>>1944
Breaches or databases, but Googling your info is a really shitty way to go about this, to be honest; there are so many databases (probably the majority of them) that won't show up being indexed by Google. There used to be WeLeakInfo as a pretty decent breach search engine, but that got shut down and now there are only watered-down, dollar-store versions of it up.

Sis, 18% of property crimes are solved by police, at least in America. You won't go to jail for shit. In most cases, using NORDVPN or a residential (if the specific platform you're trying to crack will block logins from obvious proxies like public VPNs) is enough, unless you're getting into serious shit. It's not simming.

>>1050
Old, but this is good advice, especially logging into people's accounts from VPNs close to their actual location. You can variably log into someone's PayPal account without extra steps if you are geographically close to them (detected by IP), and provided you're not spending huge amounts (or you just get locked by chance because it's a shit platform that has relatively arbitrary holds and restrictions), you can even send their money to another account, lmao.

Feel free to ask any questions if you want to know more about any of this. It's usually creepy, extremely bigoted moids that know about this kind of stuff because they want to get back at another moid that scammed them for a social media handle or some stupid shit like that, but I have experience with this type of thing since I sit inside basically all day like they do.

Anonymous 1974

Oh, and I forgot to mention that those are property crimes in real life. Unless you get the FBI involved (and that's virtually impossible for small offences), you won't be tracked down. If you, for instance, crack someone's email with a no-logs VPN on, their local police force isn't going to do shit, and they literally can't, especially if you're outside of their jurisdiction or your IP is. Depending on the VPN, they might not even have access logs (and they shouldn't if you use a VPN that doesn't keep them, which is what you should be doing) to be able to tell who was accessing that IP.

Yes, it all comes from experience. Keep in mind that although I've personally tested everything I suggested, it may have been quite a while ago (because I don't really have the need to do much of it), so there's a chance it won't work. With things like ISP/phone number doxing, you really just have to get lucky with the service rep, and some

If you have names he's used online, you can really only look up those names and he might be using the same one on other platforms. People don't really link their addresses to anything which you can find (that would be an incredible security vulnerability if you could get people's profiles on sites from their addresses), and you can't go from phone number to username, either, unless you literally put that phone number into different websites.

Your best option is to look for commons (when he uses the same alias on different platforms). Trying to find someone's other online accounts is something I've rarely done, I usually go straight for the jugular. There's nothing apart from exploits (which you won't be able to access as they're very limited in who has access to them, especially zero-days) that you can use to find accounts on more platform with a phone number or address. Hope it helps! :)

Maybe Facebook for events in uni but you do not need social media in the workplace. Not yet anyway. All the boomer managers don't care about social media and don't understand it.

Trying not to cry right now. He posted about my email mocking me and claiming I was making it up. I replied with all the evidence I had. I don’t know what I expected but some of his female followers blocked me and replied in support of him. It’s like they thought I was being hysterical or something. He did the same thing last time and it feels like by replying this time I fell into his trap to discredit me.

I didn’t say in my other posts but this has all happened over ten years. We were friends in high school but first stopped talking when he started being creepy in a sexual way. Five years ago we spoke a bit again after he moved across the planet to just see me (he said this later in his fanfiction, I didn’t know it then) and was sexually creepy in the same away so I blocked him.

For years he has been posting about me in various platforms (not just text), sometimes with my name, sometimes just identifying details for anyone that knows us both. It alternates between sexual comments saying I did things, how hot he thought I was, saying we dated, or insulting my personality.

I don’t understand what his obsession is with me. I don’t know if he wants revenge for being rejected or what. I feel unsafe posting anything with an account. We don’t live in the same country now so I don’t know if I even can go to police, not that they would care anyway.

I know I should probably just ignore everything but it’s hard :(

Don't try to understand it by normal standards. His "reasons", if you could ever extract and see them, would look and feel completely alien to you. If he wasn't capable of developing these fixations and acting on them then he wouldn't be a stalker. These people are capital-N Narcissists who choose their food/prey and then do whatever they can to maintain supply, like how he managed to bait you into engaging. Their whole lives are based around screwing others over and drawing them into torturous traps, and they are better at it than you can ever hope to be.

Some of the advice about getting rid of them involves grey-rocking, i.e. making yourself boring to them, but it sounds like their obsession has lasted years without you feeding it (I hope). You cut off communication so he did whatever he could to try and force you to re-establish it, to establish a dance where he pulls the strings and you jiggle. The next step is to try and normalise the response, to try and establish some kind of stakes that forces you to act when he wants you to.

The only protection is to say to yourself "whatever, this is boring" and completely cut off. He will then go after whatever levers he thinks will force you to act. Whatever he does, you must respond like a grey rock. Stalking victims of most kinds get shit all help from the cops, even in physical stalking cases, unless they take action that the cops can use as evidence of a crime.

By the way, it's likely that he has other sources of supply that he feeds off with different games. I had to deal with one at a workplace and I ended up physically ill from it before I managed to get away. I was very fortunate that it wasn't a long-term fixation that caused them to follow me, but I heard later from people at my old work that he started behaving erratically after I left, randomly humiliating employees and being creepy in hard-to-hide ways. I think that being starved of the supply I unwillingly gave maybe made him desperate and sloppy, but it's not something I want to think about any more.

Anyway, the majority of material on normalfag sites don't go into enough first-hand detail about how awful and destructive they can be. Know your enemy. I got a lot of insight to this stuff by reading a book called "Dangerous Personalities" by Joe Navarro. There was another good website I learned a lot from, but the writer since turned into a bonkers Q-tard so I'm hesitant to link it here.

Good luck anon.

Thanks, this is really helpful. I have only had communication 3 times in 5 years: the first email after his long fanfiction asking if I was missing something as to why he was posting about me (which he then promptly deleted and said he meant no offense, sure…), the police email, and then replying to his latest about me. There have been other things that I didn’t engage with.

I think you could be right about the narcassist thing, I never thought about it before. When I cut him off for sexual comments the second time, his reply was just “ok, let me know if you change your mind” after I explained how I felt. Like no emotional engagement at all.

I also didn’t realise this clasifies as stalking, but I realise it now. That definitely fits and I will start grey-rocking immediately.

He completely downplays what he did (and deleted tweets to hide it - I have the screencaps though) and makes it seem like I am crazy for reporting him to the police.

He's also weirdly fixated on something inane that happened the time we saw each other.

>Him: So what have you done recently?

>Me: Oh, not that much.

That's it. He has repeated this exchange multiple times over the years and says it's why he rejected me (ignoring that it was me that blocked him for being a creep and that I wasn't feeling well that day).

I was pretty upset when I posted before but now it seems pretty farcical. I was also worried a bit that I wasn't going to have enough evidence as a lot of this happened years ago but he's displaying his weird obsession daily, it's actually kind of funny now (he doesn't know my location so no real danger thankfully).

I have a habit of building up people around me to almost mythical status. Anything good that happens to them must be because they are so much more clever, hardworking, talented, etc than me.

Cyberstalking has helped me realise a lot of it is just luck and that I’m actually doing pretty well for myself when comparing the hand I was given.

For example, I once overheard a super smart girl talk about the time she met the prime minister. I always assumed she must have won an essay contest or done something really amazing. In comparison, I didn’t even know such contests existed.

By chance I recently came across some details about her meeting and it was down to pure nepotism. The thought never crossed my mind in all these years. It was just an automatic reaction to assume I was not good enough.

I’ve done similar things for other people many times. Cyberstalking has made me so much more confident in myself from being able to see the reality of situations. Is anyone else like this?

yeahh… met this guy like 10 months back. fell for him, and were good friends for a while but lost touch. sometimes i go and look at his family's social media and read news from his town. im still in love with him though i havent spoke to him in 6 months. so i stalk him

once this me and this girl were fighting in a discord server. i regularly pretend to be a man on discord for obvious reasons and me and some dudes all pressured her into telling us where she was from and sending pics of her face. posted her info around some places. she freaked out and begged me to take the posts down.

I’ve been on the internet since I was 8 years old, I was a latchkey kid and had no friends ever, coming home from miserable lonely days at school and going onto my laptop was a refuge for me. I was in chat rooms talking to adults at like age 9, on text and microphone. I got myself into lots of stupid trouble online back then, but I also learned lots of fun tricks to mess with people lol.
I learned how to IP grab when I was 10, i learned how to ddos people offline (with a shell booter) aka script kiddie stuff at age 13. I learned to use VPN early
On, I learned to never click links.
…most importantly I learned how to leave no digital footprint online ever, no trace ever.
I won’t lie i probably doxx everyone I meet, or I try too atleast, but I don’t post it anywhere it’s not malicious intent, I’m just curious.

I has a friend in high school who was a bit of a compulsive liar, though kind enough. None of lies were malicious, just more like pretending she had friends or tickets for things that didn't exist and which meant finding out plans she arranged involving these things would fall apart at the last minute. The weirdest ones were pretending to be a year younger than she was and so having a fake 18th birthday, and also paying a guy she had pretended to know from myspace (and his friend) to come to a party. She was ESL and from a muslim country and had moved to my high school in the final years so I think she just really wanted to fit in.

I lost touch with all my high school contacts not long after but still google them from time to time to find out where they went in life. I couldn't find any social media for this friend though. Eventually ages after high school I did find mention of her deep in a thread on a lolcow-esque site. People were laughing at her for pretending to go a good college and be dating a fairly well known sports player when it clearly didn't add up.

I feel kind of bad for her that she hasn't grown out of this, especially as she is living in a third country now and could have made a clean break with her past if she'd wanted to. Have to wonder why she feels the need to do this.

Some guy that I had an inappropriate relationship with almost a decade ago (and which got him fired a few years ago after he tried to restart it and I contacted his employer) sent me a creepy stalkerish message. It was on an account I seldom use and sent months ago but I only saw it now. He accused me of "hiding" and asked if it was worth it.

Does he really think that years later I am organizing my entire life around him? It couldn't be that I deleted my social media accounts before I even reported him. Or that I got rid of other stuff more recently because of a different creep. Oh no.

Like no dude, my whole life just doesn't revolve around you. Got better things to do with my time unlike him trying unsuccessful to guess my password (I got it wrong for the first time in at least a year and it immediately said there had been too many failed attempts).

I get looking someone up after a while out of curiosity but then assuming the results you find (or lack of) are all about you years after you last had contact is just unhinged narcissism. Having limited internet presence isn't even that weird if you're a professional or just not that online.

And sending a message about it which is just going to make yourself look even worse… Just why?

I just want a nice cozy image board. I don't need my fucking name attached to it. Is that so much to ask?

>What'd you do with that guy's message anyway? I feel like it'd be tempting to rub his nose in it but that doesn't feel wise, from experience.

I was tempted to just reply with something like pic related but either he wouldn't get it or would think I was joking in a good way.

My first thought after that was to reply and tell him that if he didn't leave me alone, I would contact the police. Messaging me for no reason, years after what happened, and in such an unsettling way, plus trying to hack my account, would probably all be of interest to them.

He was also pretty stalkerish too after things ended, sending nasty messages, accusing me of dating other men, and then not taking a hint when I didn't reply half the time. He enjoyed putting me down and calling me stupid when we were together, while playing up how smart he was himself. It's clear that he wanted to provoke a reaction so I just deleted the account as I'm not using it anymore. Also replying to a months old message would be a bit weird.

Thankfully I'm pretty sure he won't have another way to contact me or gain information about me and I live in a different country now and not in contact with anyone from my past. Though if he does contact me, I guess I will have to go through will reporting him. I don't really what to have to explain everything that happened previously to the police but I don't want to deal with (another) stalker either. I did decide that I'm not going to bother with warning him first as he's a grown adult and can face the consequences of his own actions.

Maybe I should just make an easily found instagram profile and post a bunch of pictures of me being really boring, doing mundane things, and looking slobby, so the creeps lose interest. Though men will literally fuck comatose woman and inanimate objects so I doubt that would work.

>I just want a nice cozy image board. I don't need my fucking name attached to it. Is that so much to ask?

Same, I'm too socially awkward to enjoy social media. I never used the accounts I made much and always ended up deleting them not long after. I guess if he had ever actually gotten to know me he would have realized this.

I think it's funny that I know a lot about her and she barely even knows anything about me because I'm careful about the kind of information I attach to my accounts so they can't be easily associated with one another (and she's already a privacy conscious kind of person). Sometimes I think about scaring her telling her what I know to get back at her for all the lovebombing. I don't know why I'm so attached, probably because the first time we ever talked she told me she could tell I had an ed… she said she's recovered but she makes comments about it without any prompting from me.

I remember months ago a friend made me play VR chat for the first time and it was incredible.
We went to a map with a weird train and we ended up finding a ton of randoms that were just goofing around then came together to act like there was some big mystery on that train and telling some elaborate, hilarious storyline–even including me in it as some passive observer.
…mind you, these were complete strangers. And I was just sitting there awkwardly with my mic off like a boring idiot, my movements and my friend doing the only speaking for me.

It made such a huge impression on me that I'm sure I would have probably wanted to find out way more about them if I could, even if I'd be stupid over it.

I don't cyber-stalk that much, I have my parasocial fascinations where I check on people every now and then but I never stalk if you know what I mean, I only stalked one person I cyberstalked was my e-bf who lived with his parents, he love-bombed me and convinced me to get into an e-relationship when I was so vulnerable then pulled that away and became distant and cold, I was yearning to know about him more and see him more when he didn't even return my good morning texts so I did some looking up and found his public records, through it I found his mother and cyberstalked her facebook, then his aunt because he mentioned that he had an aunt who owned a stable who had a three-year-oldgirl… I doxxed his address and phone number using public records, pictures he sent, and info he told me like what car model he had, I saved these along with other info in a file and archived them.
I also found his old accounts on many social media platforms because he used the same combination of words for a username, while cyber-stalking his family I found out that his aunt is a bit of a cool Instagram mom who posts on her stories often so I viewed them daily without following her because she would visit her sister and take videos and pictures with him in them, he never sent me pics or updates when he had a big day like a bday and he was so much of a loser that he celebrated his bdays by drinking with his parents and aunt and her husband, even on his graduation day I had to cyberstalk his aunt to see him in his cap and gown, the aunt eventually blocked me and stopped posting much and it made me so paranoid that he might've known.
even after breaking up with him I still cyber-stalked his mom on facebook, she got a new job lol,, and as for him he doesn't post on social media much and only uses twitter afaik so I stalk his likes from time to time even two years later and I think that he got in another e-relationship with this 18 year old girl who lives on the opposite side of the world from him, I feel like reaching out to her and talking her out of it since I've known him for longer than she ever could and I know that he is only using her for validation and to kill time until he finds a stacy irl who would be interested in him that and the fact that he is a pedo furry.

over the years i've actually ended up finding out scandalous things about people of interest (artists with secret fetish alts, personal tumblr vent blogs meant for close with messed up confessions, nsfw blogs, etc.), if i really wanted to i could "cancel" a lot of people. but i don't support that kind of culture so i've never collaborated with a callout post or anything. i just take notes and move on. i've also never doxxed anyone (though i've found people's real names by accident) and don't care to. i just treat the internet as my personal zoo and try to follow the "animals" if they leave

Was looking for the female creep thread to post this in, but this one works just as well.

I found his general Twitter account finally. This isn't simply limerence anymore, this is downright sickened obsession with this poor boy. But I can't stop myself. I've trained myself to be this creepy from all the fictional characters I've stanned before over the years. This is not okay to do to another person, but I just can't stop. Not even distracting myself with games or other men makes me want to give up on him. It's rotting my brain and ruining my life but I truly cannot stop.

I'm not surprised by his Twitter likes. I don't quite fully understand why he faps to blacked porn, of the types of women he enjoys getting fucked by black guys. I earnestly think he is a cuck at heart, but I also notice that some of the other liked porn is about the viewer fucking a trashy skanks while dogging on prudish types like his old girlfriend. Probably some kind of self-insert, regretting that he didn't have a better girlfriend growing up. Likewise, I wonder what it is about the more unsavory things he enjoys that makes his dick twitch. His brain runs in taboos that I don't usually think much about, and it fascinates me.

He's such a cute little virgin. I wish he would tease me again with IRL pictures of himself, but I think he stopped caring about my pleasure a long time ago.

I can't really tell if his followers are anyone he actually talks to that's worth a damn. They mainly look like spam and e-thots looking for money. I'm going to sift through who he's following, not sure if I should cuddle up with a warm drink or not.

I have no guilt about cyberstalking him because he makes himself too fun to cyberstalk, and we'll probably never date anyways. Even before I was obsessed with him he was pretty clear about not seeing anyone. He has a lot of his other accounts set to private even though mine are public, and I'm not afraid to hide anything from him, other than the extent of my obsession with him. I love getting a daily dose of him in some form or another, and I tend to cry when I get into withdrawals without him.

I'm disgusting. Revolting. A grown woman shouldn't be acting like this. I should be just dating normal men and living a normal life instead of being turned on by drawings and obsessed with someone that checks so many of my own tick boxes. I know I need help but until I can replace him I'm just going to continue to behave this way. I'm sorry.

I saw a macro of a newspaper that said "I married my stalker" and it made me unironically think GIWTWM and him, but with IRL sex instead of marriage. I might be batty but I just want to get all my terrible horny out before I commit to someone, if I ever do marry and settle down and have kids.

Sometimes I wonder if that's what he wants from me; to go ahead and cuck him by getting a husband and use him as my little side piece. My only problem with that is I don't know if I could actually unironically do that to someone and live with myself.

I wish he would just accept being in a Mdlb relationship with me, where sometimes he can dom if he wants to. No third parties unless we agree on it, plenty of solo sex with just him and I.

Anonymous 4698

>>4697
I've searched a good amount of his following, choosing to stop for now. Only a few of his followers were anything but bots.

A deeper analysis tells me there is nothing much else to be concerned about. His pornrot extends past much else I care about, and I cannot see if he's talking privately with others, nor really care much to know, as I've witnessed how that tends to go a few times now.
I can't tell if he's following findoms to be milked by or if he wishes to engage in the practice himself. But if anything, his lazy behavior says it all. He won't ever be much of anything if he cooms his life away on empty harlots that will take the ego boost and forget he ever existed in the next week or month.

What a sad soul I stalk.
A foolish part of me wants to snap him out of it and retrain him into being a proper young man, try to make him into something useful and successful, and yet if I hadn't any feelings for him at all I, too, would likely spit on him and pass him by as a sorry cuckold unworthy of being any pet or lover of mine.

This cyberstalking was successful. The results were semi-fruitful in other information I won't include here, and I can rest a little easier now. Part of me still thinks there might be another account surely for less porn-oriented things, and I'd love to find it if it exists, but knowing what a slimey little pervert he is, it simply might not exist.

I find it curious that even my old account was more popular than his. He isn't as social as I assumed him to be. Perhaps that's part of why he withdraws himself, ashamed of all the wretched filth he hoardes within him.

The two of us are like two sides of a cautionary tale for people to never ever become, I feel.

Ngl, don't really care for reactionary non-replies like this. You could at least have the guts to criticize me or say something more specific to what I posted than just "wtf".

As a small update, more blacked porn and I found a couple more non-porn goofy accounts he's following, so I don't think there's a non-porn alt. I'm not really sure what to think about it, because there's old and recent stuff, and he's never really implied to my face that he's genuinely into this. I saw from other archives he used to post on other image boards about it, but that was over a year ago and from my own research. I didn't think it was still something he was interested in now. I don't know how much of this is really healthy or not, but I'm also aware I'm pot and he's kettle; and I'm calling him blacked.

Thanks, glad someone else kinda gets it. Apparently my radar was completely off anyways, and he picked back up being active somewhere else even while I was posting that. I know I'm not his keeper, it's been a pretty self-destructive journey being so dependent on wanting to be the one that makes his highest highs. I realize that's not realistic and he's kind of a typical moid manwhore anyways. It's all been an escape from trying to make my own happiness myself.

I've done the opposite, I used to look at his pics almost daily but now I don't. I'm trying to get back to how I was before I met him as best as I can, even though it won't be fully possible because I made some major life changes during the time we've known each other.

I think my biggest problem is this parasocial relationship I've attached in addition to the reality. He really is not the angel I imagine him to be, and the reality hurts sometimes. It hurts a lot, actually.

Yep, Twitter timeline. It's almost a perfect 1:1 except there's 5 privated accounts that have to approve my following. One of them is just inactive I think, another seems to be a shitty findom that probably wants me to pay $15 to follow (lmao no), the others are Japanese artists that might also be inactive. Thankfully, I think none of them are really very related to the current trend of followings.

the first person i cyberstalked was my camp counselor when i was around 11. i found her tumblr etc and checked it obsessively for years, for no reason. she very rarely ever made an original post, about 98% of her stuff was reblogs and she was on tumblr every day.

about a year later i started sitting next to this guy in class and a couple weeks in it was pretty obvious he had a crush on me. i liked him too but wouldn’t do anything about it because he was pretty unpopular and i was embarrassed. i found his tumblr and started obsessively checking that as well. again, he barely ever made original posts but he did occasionally post something vaguely juicy about having a crush or whatever. i checked out some of the stuff i found from his tumblr (shows, music, etc) and when we actually started messaging each other frequently a month or so later i knew all about them.

in high school we actually ended up actually dating and he gave me an invite to a groupchat with his online friends, and it actually went far enough back that i could look at weird pervy chats he’d sent about me to his friends in middle school… anyways, we broke up and it tore me apart. the relationship sucked and he sucked but i still found myself checking his twitter but in a hate boner way. i still check a couple times a day, and it’s been almost 2.5 years since we broke up and 1.5 since i cut him off for being a shit friend. i don’t really do it in a parasocial way. i mostly like to just look at the shitty opinions he has, make sure he’s nowhere near me socially, and laugh at his misfortune whenever it arises.

when we dated in high school he introduced me to a guy i’m still friends with today who is really big on privacy. i really think this guy is awesome (not in a romantic way, i just admire him) and shortly after we met i found his reddit. reddit follows were private at the time so i followed him with my account because i’m a dumbass. then reddit rolled out a feature that lets you see who follows you and i guess he checked his because he sent me a message flipping out (understandably.) i told him that he had given me the name/linked me to something once and i had just done it without thinking. he continued to freak out on me for a bit (again - 100% justified) until he calmed down. this was around 1.5 years ago and we’re good friends still so i think everything’s okay. i still check his reddit every day.

i think there’s two things that make cyberstalking attractive to me. the first is that i’m very much a people person and find humans the most interesting thing about life etc etc. it’s cool to learn about them especially because it’s not like you can hang out with people every moment. second: i like having knowledge about people they don’t know i have. it makes me feel powerful.

i do really hate that i do this, but i don't really know how to stop. it's become an obsessive comulsion over the years and it makes me sick when i think about it. i’ve had to start purposefully making friends that don’t have much of an online presence to try to curb this habit (though of course that’s hard to tell without knowing some amount about them.) my current boyfriend has an old-ish reddit and a public instagram, and that’s about it.

occasionally i have seen something i wish i hadn't, like when i accidentally found my ex's schizo older brother's profiles. i don't really "actively" cyberstalk anymore - as in, seek out new profiles. i just check the same old ones. that being said, i haven't found any new people who interest me lately, so who knows.

i've been stalking someone i read about on the news a few years ago and it's so fucking weird to me to be able to read someone's oversharing about familial abuse, sexual degeneracy, and personal drama without knowing them personally. i think i just wanted her as a friend and managed to get invited into some personal discord servers she was in, but my contact with her was sort of short-lived after she kept getting banned. I try not to feel bad about following her since she posts all of this publicly and she's kind of a private lolcow, so i'm always conflicted lol. oh well, i'll keep on archiving shit until the day i die i'm sure

I have fixations that come and go and I don't know what exactly triggers them. Sometimes it's because I like their looks, sometimes because of their personality/interests, or something I can relate to/what I want to be, sort of.
I noticed that I usually get fixated on people that have an air of mystery surrounding them (got that sounds corny) or prefer to keep to themselves/not share lots of info about themselves.
Notable examples:
1
>Female artist who I've been stalking for ~6 years. It's a bit complicated but when I only began to stalk her I didn't realize she could see that I reposted her photos/drawings to a private group (she couldnt view the group but she could see the notification that I reposted a pic via share button), blocked me from her account and from her art page. Both me and her have multiple accounts on that platform, so I have a plethora of accs I can use to view her art page and her account (her account is private now though, but it's not a big deal anymore). I even dug up her old tumblr blog and 3 different ask.fm pages, all of which she was on when she was around 16, all of which were fun to read through. i also dug through her friend list to find more photos of her.
>I gained her trust after I switched to a different account, fake name, to post my art. We did a couple trades, and I made an instagram account where some time later I could see both her public art account and her personal private account. During this (recent) period I haven't been obsessing over her, maybe because she's not so mysterious to me anymore, but she's still a very interesting person that I share lots of views with and I love her style and I'll keep contact with her. I like seeing how her art style shifted during these years, along with focus on different characters/themes.
2
>One girl who I've been fixated on in the past, mainly just because I really liked how she looks. We also shared taste in music somewhat, I liked to see her playing guitar. I only saw a couple of her photos and after doing a bit of digging found her instagram and saved all of her photos, including with her ex-bf, those pics are now deleted. My interest died own rather quickly after she changed her appearance and style (she now has a kind of preppy-rich look, and she cut her hair short and started wearing makeup), after we had a brief conversation and she was able to find some of my accounts on other platforms like pinterest because I was retarded enough to name them after her insta username. I was afraid she's gonna find my public account where I post my art, so I tweaked a few things to prevent that from happening. I havent checked her account in 6 months or so.

found out one of my tumblr mutuals' name about a year ago & using that and a video which he uploaded and had sent me i found his full name, but i wasnt as much of a creep as i am now.
anyway, then a few months later i found his sister's account through looking him up on youtube again AND his steam handle which was just his name, and she had linked some other accounts on her youtube like her deviantart ETC. and then using that i found her on instagram and eventually saw what he looked like.
i tried forgetting about this and pretending like nothing happened because i know i went too far and somebody could just as easily do this to me, but today i found out his middle name and got googling. i found his great grandfather's obituary and information on his family.
then i went back to instagram through his sister's account i found his and through that account i found his mother's and went through it all and found loads of pictures of him when he was younger
i feel like a monster i cant stop this madness i dont even like him or feel anything towards him but im terrified one of his family members has an IP tracker tool attached to their profiles and the thought of the possibility of them seeing me screenshot their posts using those tracker apps is making me lose my mind although i know this is entirely my fault.
i think i am going into a panic attack thinking of him confronting me about this because i really have no excuse.
i feel horrid but i cant stop and i do this everytime i find somebody interesting.
i feel especially awful knowing this could be done to me just as easily but i cant keep my hands to myself curiosity really gets the best of me.

I stalk this one girl but her main social media accounts are private like her Instagram. I really doubt even if I made a fake account, she would accept my request since she barely has any followers to begin with. Even though I can’t see what she posts on there, she’ll sometimes have a week where she’ll keep changing her profile picture and I always make sure to save it every time it changes. So now I have a little collection of pictures of her that aren’t public anymore and it gives me a sense of satisfaction. I know that’s pretty creepy but it gives me a rush

I used to stalk my boyfriend's ex. When we met, i already really really like her but we never got to be friends mainly because always had someone between us and we never got to talk just two of us. When he said he still liked her, my admiration for her turned into obsession. I used to have some of her social media, and i stalked her almost everyday, saw the movies she liked, listened to the music she used to listen (i used to do that because we had alot in commun, but in this situation was just unhealthy). A time ago he cut all relationship with her and so do i, and i never got interested in her again. Sometimes i think that further than a thing with our exs, i kinda liked her? We have so much in commun, and maybe i wanted to be her and be WITH her.

haveibeenpwned, intelx.io, dehashed, sites like these search known data breaches for an email or phone number and offer general info about the breach, like site, date compromised, number of accounts compromised, etc

googling general terms for the dump usually works, like hacking forums, then it's just a matter of downloading it and combing through the info

some breaches are uploaded to pastebin in plain text, in that case googling general terms for the breach along with the phone number or email with "dump" or "site:pastebin" can locate it, check archives and cached versions of those pages if they're finicky

an alternative to breaches is exploiting account recovery utilities on websites, some sites can use a phone number to log a user in and finding the associated email address is just a matter of initiating the password reset process for that account, that will usually bring up the email associated with it to confirm and send a reset link to. but be cautious since this can notify the user depending on the site, find the sites you know they have an account with and try it out with your own info and see if you get a notification, email, etc, and keep track of the ones that are "soft reset" (no alert) and "hard reset" (alert)

When I see a criminal on the news and they pique my interest, I see if I can cyber stalk them before the police or family shut down their profiles. Nothing too crazy, butI found the profiles of a woman who was arrested for killing one of her kids and disembowling another. I found her twitter, fb, and youtube, and a pinterest too I think. She would frequently @ corpse husband on twitter, and her youtube had typical disturbing story stuff on it. Her Facebook had tons of pansexual pride piccrew icons which was strangely funny but depressing.

thank God I found this thread, finally a place I can ask for advice for this without people moralfagging at me.

Long story short I started simping hard after some guy after he kissed me once and promptly moved on. Pathetic I know. Anyway since I know him irl I know his real name, phone number, discord, face and dox. Im pretty sure he's since graduated so I don't know if I'll even see him again.
What I want is to almost reverse dox him. I want to find his secret social media accounts, find the discord servers he is in and stuff. Knowing the kind of guy he is I just know he has dirt on him somewhere. The problem is he has absolutely 0 social media presence attached to his real name. I only know his discord because he used to be in some discord servers for my college, and we spoke a few times on there. Unfortunately he left all the college servers and unfriended everyone knew there including me once the semester ended. So I have no way of stalking him at the moment other than typical people searchers that bring up minimal info I already know. And of course I can't message him on discord as myself because embarrassment. I'm sure he does have social media but it's not connected to his real name in any way. Is there any way I could find them? Another thing is, I know there used to be a site called dis.cool where you could see every server someone on discord is in. Unfortunately whiny redditors got it taken down. I can't seem to find a replacement but if anyone knows of a similar tool I would appreciate it a lot. I intend to join those servers with an alt. He also mentioned having a vlog on youtube which I'm trying to find but again I think it's under a username, so I have no idea where to start looking. Idk why I just want to read all of his secrets, learn as much of him as I can? I want to find all of his comments, all of his messages. I feel like such a creep lmao but he's some jackass lowkey misogynist rich stocks bro so he deserves it I guess

Google obsessively using all combinations of the information you do have, not necessarily all at once you can do it over time at irregular intervals. Sometimes new information comes up out of nowhere, other times Google can decide to dig up old info and put it on blast on the first search page for no reason. You can also try searching her discord handle and see if she's posted it anywhere else that could link her identity to the accounts she posted about it from.

i cyberstalk literally anybody i find even a little bit interesting and gather every piece of information i can find on them, until either they do something or i find something mildly annoying and i lose all interest. it's like i get fixated on new people until i can confirm they're as much of a loser as the rest of them.

i did this with my boyfriend before we started dating, tho he has a really minimal social media presence. found his linkedin and family socials n stuff, home address before he gave it to me. i don't need to do it as much anymore bc he's really just an open book to me now. i think if we had any less contact with eachother i'd be more insane about it though.

something that i've really been trying to get over is one of my online friends, who's really private about his security. i think he's fascinating, and i don't even think it's in a crush kind of way, but just that he's genuinely interesting and we're into a lot of the same stuff. but he's literally so intent on keeping his online and irl life separate that he doesn't even share his voice publicly, let alone selfies/other personal info. a while back he slipped up and posted a link to an instagram acct that i could assume he was following. cross referencing the followers list with other small snippets of information that i knew about him led me to finding what i'm literally 98% certain is his irl instagram account. i was really hoping he was ugly so i could stop fixating on him, but he's actually gorgeous, just kind of unkempt. really pissed me off, i literally have to force myself to ignore his messages whenever he sends me anything i think is cool because i know how easily i could get out of hand.

I've been cyberstalking a 35+yo incel coworker and finally found something interesting. For background: this moid is pushing 40 and can't look women in the eye when talking, yet when he does manage to speak to a woman he can barely hide his vicious misogyny and porn addiction. He once threw a bag of garbage at a teenage employee and said "I thought you people wanted equal rights" because she asked him for help carrying something heavy. He also once let it slip that he thinks sex involves the man "spraying" the woman. Not only does he have no prospects, all of our mutual female coworkers are scared of him. He recently quit his job without notice after working there for almost 7 years.

Because of all this, I found it odd that he is now apparently in a relationship with a cute Vietnamese girl. Even more odd, this girl has no other white, English-speaking friends on her profile - only Vietnamese.
Again, she's very cute and has lots of friends, but her posts will have 50+ likes - exclusively Vietnamese people, speaking exclusively vietnamese - and then my co worker "Steve Davidson from bumfuck Oklahoma". She also lives in Vietnam and doesn't seem to have ever traveled anywhere else. Steve likes all her posts but never comments on them. Also Steve has no other communication on this app besides her and there's no public mention of their relationship on either page, I only happened to find out through a birthday greeting from Steve to this girl where they both exchange "I love you" and "I'm happy I found you" messages and hearts. This relationship has also apparently been going on for over a year.

So I'm pretty confused. I don't buy that they're in a real relationship because it seems like they've never met each other irl and the girl almost seems to want to hide it.

Another thing is that when translating the comment on her profile from vietnamese, some of them are actually pretty rude "you've gotten so fat you're unrecognizable"

I seriously want to get to the bottom of this. How did they even meet? I doubt Steve has ever traveled to vietnam. Maybe she's leading him on to exploit him? This seems likely but why are there no other clueless white dudes liking her posts? Its all so bizarre.

There's been a guy I've been wanting to get to know online but he has all of his DMs closed even if I follow him. How do I reach an area to talk with him? I've been thinking on talking to some of his mutual friends so that potentially there'll be a window of opportunity where they can introduce me to him, etc. But in case that doesn't work out, what should I do?

ayrt, it's almost all down to luck. i don't spend a lot of time in public online spaces (anymore) and only really meet ppl who are friends-of-friends, so almost all of my advice would be really conditional. the one thing i can suggest is like, finding a VERY niche community for something you're interested in and hoping that there are some cool people around, though you'd probably want less of something like a discord server and more like a group of tumblr blogs/ neocities webring. reach out to those who you find interesting based on the presence they've curated for themselves, hope you click and hopefully they can bring you into a wider scene of people you also get along with.

All the time since 2015 but not too extensively, I just got a few social media accounts I check like newspapers.
Some of them are old friends who either hate me now because of the disk horse or simply distanced from each other for whatever reason. Those, I only check because I still kind of like them and want to see what is going on their lives and if they're ok.
Then, a few accs I hate and check to either laugh at them or to send hate when I'm bored. Sometimes they rt/post stuff I like, so that's a bonus.

Does anyone have any advice on cyber stalking someone from a different country, like Russia? I am a burger and have been trying to trowel through Yandex and even signed up to VK to snoop around. The guy I want to focus on shared a link to a Google drive file through an account with a first, middle, and last name attached to it. I managed to find his Facebook profile and VK, both of which haven't been touched since 2017 or so. I've tried googling his name in English and Russian and haven't come up with anything besides those two profiles. The only other info I have on him is where he's lived, and his nsfw art profiles, which he kept secret.

Any ideas how I could get more leads? I'm starting to think he is really laying low, or the name I found was an alias if not even Yandex can show me anything pertinent.

I love the idea of finding obscure websites/blogs nobody knows, because you can find some interesting art or facts in there, but unfortunately, it didn't stop for me at there. When I was younger and a more spiteful person, I was extremely obsessive with stalking people I hated online. I remembered a few people's emails, personal accounts, even names and addresses where they lived. I really regret it though, because I've seen shit that I shouldn't have. I've seen shit like detailed suicides, murders, secret places where illegal pictures were shown… I wish I wasn't so curious like that and didn't find all that nasty shit. Nowadays, I'm a lot more calm and I almost never cyberstalk anymore, and I'm in a better mental state.

I still like finding cute old websites and fan communities that aren't updated anymore, though. But that's as far as I'll go.

I used to be on several private tracker communities for games that would supply their own private servers behind a walled garden. Since it was seldom public and invite only, I got to see unfortunately a bunch of fucked up shit behind closed doors. There were people who would kill women and post it in those servers, and it was really fucking horrifying.

One picture I remember seeing was a guy slicing the neck of a woman, and you could see the blood on her neck and her eyes clearly made it obvious that she was dead. For suicides, the details I mean were how that in these private servers, people would discuss their private lives and shit before they went off to kill themselves. Sometimes they disappeared without warning, but others chill the ever living fuck out of me. One guy in particular committed suicide at the young age of 19 because he was overcome with extreme guilt after someone he was dating lied about being an adult, in order to incriminate him and frame him as a pedophile. The guy in question was really talented and he was a very good western player of rhythm games, and had a good future going for him and everything. There's similar stories as well. A lot of themes of detailed drug abuse and mental torment, and it's really horrifying to read shit like that in full detail. I mean shit like, you could tell someone was going through a mental breakdown and they really needed help. I was only 15/16 when I saw this shit too.
I really wish I was never involved into private communities. I dug way too fucking deep.

Update: found another account of his that dates back to 2017 and has way more posts. Dude's charming. He's a total cunt, spits incel rhetoric and unfunny "women xd amirite" jokes, picks hysterical fights in unnecessary places… I'd say he wastes way too much time on this shit, but he does it on the clock, so props to that, I guess.

His personality makes way more sense in this context, though. Seems like I totally misread him initially, or rather, doubted my own judgement in the moment and went for the "more realistic" option. It honestly makes me feel at ease now, lol.

Also, extreme schizo thoughts on par with that anon that's being followed by everyone incoming. Due to the very specific timing that some of his posts/accounts began to appear in, including two that especially stand out, I can't help but feel that I'm being watched. For context, he's basically the IT guy of the building I live in and potentially has access to everyone's data. He might even be reading this. In which case, I may be going fucking insane, but I literally cannot describe how ridiculously fun and addictive this is. So thanks for that, you fucking freak.

Has any cyberstalker here ever confessed to the person they stalked about, well, the stalking and how was the outcome? Did it make you stop? Did you become friends?

There's this girl I've been following for nearly 10 years now. These days, I check her blog only every few months and I've stopped saving every single one of her blog entries. I'm happy she has started to post more regularly again.

Last year (or was it the year before?), she was barely present for several months and even though I knew it was dumb to care about an internet stranger who doesn't even know me, it still threw me into a bit of a crisis. Her blog is the only link I have to her, she doesn't seem to have any other social media accounts with the same username. If she ever deleted it, I wouldn't know how to let go of my secret obsession with her. At that point, I honestly think I'd just buy a ticket to her country and walk around her town, check out all the places she could be working at just to see her once in real life and then put it all behind me.

currently i know my gf’s tumblr and twitter. sometimes she used to scroll tumblr while i sat by her, and i memorized the people she followed. i knew she had an avatar with a frog so i looked for this in the likes of blogs i saw, eventually finding her. same with twit (searched web for the two or three keywords i could remember from a tweet she talked about to me, found her avatar (and opinion) in the replies). she doesn’t know i know either of these. we kind of wanted to keep these to ourselves but here i am… i just couldn’t help it.

she rarely posts about me/irl but once she did make a long post about something i said and how it hurt her. i felt like i had an unfair advantage, being able to basically read her mind in that moment. weird. idk how to stop peeking now (though i’m trying), and i’m afraid she’s gonna find out i know.

thank you for your response, yeah i was worried he might be in love with me based on some of his messages. i can understand where he'd want to protect me as well. i've learned a lot about him over the past few months.

to answer your question, it was definitely weird and accidental. i've been prone to stalking tendencies since middle-school. in this situation, he was the one who started stalking me first which was the weird part.
he and i met online on a website, and we exchanged our accounts elsewhere.
when he suddenly stopped talking to me for a couple months, i wondered what happened. admittedly, i was trying not to stalk him when he initially gave me his accounts, but i didn't because i was trying to respect him and his privacy.
since he went silent on me, i started cyber-stalking all the accounts he sent me beforehand. i also looked up more accounts based on his usernames. i dug a lot deeper, and when i dug deeper i discovered he had been stalking me way longer, basically since he had stopped talking to me.

i continued stalking him, and he continued stalking me, and it's ongoing but it's been eating me alive each day. i think he might have already gone to somewhere i've been in person already. i'm pretty anxious all day long about it. it's caused me to become really obsessive and more panicky than usual. just a really odd situation that feels fictional but i'm living it.

I now know that he either attempted suicide, or his family stopped him before he could and kept him off the internet, as when I looked at his mother's Facebook today, I saw many new photos and videos of him from the past several months. It was painful watching them hug him in place, as if he would fall to the ground should they let go of him, and sing prayers around him while he sways and looks around vacantly. He always looks so out of place around other people. He shuts off. I can only guess what he thinks about in those moments, but I can tell his mind is trying to go somewhere else. I used to do that a lot as a child. He was a smart man before he started down the bad spiral. He started getting worse two years ago, and the world angered him for a long while. Anger and sadness. That’s all it ever seemed to be. You can only pull it inside yourself for so long when the joy is gone. For a long time he was making threats, but then he cooled down and only thought of dying. That’s how this mess started. I wanted to save him, but I was a coward, and in the end acted too late, but then again it doesn’t really matter whether it was too late or not at all. It wouldn’t have made a difference. I think it would have gone down a similar route. We can’t fight fate. There’s a path in life, even if you aren’t aware of it. There are natural patterns life tends toward and misery is just one of them. There were some photos of him smiling, so I guess he's at least somewhat happy with his new life. He seems like he’s been lobotomized. Sometimes the only way to look forward is forgetting. Maybe that’s why electroshock therapy works. It takes away memories. The bad ones and the good ones too. I sometimes wish I could take all of his memories away and start a new life with him. All of his frustrations about the life he’s lived would be gone. That terrible world with its terrible little crooked people would be a grim fairytale. He could live free of all of that. Instead of stepping out into an oppressive atmosphere, he could be greeted by a gentle breeze. He could wake up to a fresh day and smile for being alive. That’s peace. Calm. I think, sometimes, that would save me too. Then reality returns, because we don’t live in the peaceful world where it is possible to be calm. We live in the bad one, with the bad people, and I am one of them. A woebegone wretch like me could never really love him the way a man needs to be loved. I can’t smile at him or comfort him. My ugliness precedes me. A horrid cowardly woman like me can’t be part of this world, only watch it from a distance. Even so, I think watching him eased some of my horridness if only a little bit. Even now, I have more to say about this new discovery than I have said all year. I don’t typically wish to speak on anything, especially not to people, as nothing is really important to me. But in this moment he matters to me. I wish I could feel what other people feel and act natural but it isn’t in me. I can only watch other people live and die. He's on vacation at some luxury resort in Thailand right now with his family. She really loves her autistic son, seemingly more than her normal one. I wish I knew what that love felt like. I know I never had a chance with him, as much as I’ve dreamed about it, and I'm only hurting myself by going down this path again, looking for him in everything again, but it's like thinking about him wakes something up inside me, as if I'm an emotionless loveless soulless corpse getting dragged through life, and when I care about him I'm alive again. I know I can't go back to doing this though. I almost killed myself last time I thought he was dead, and he doesn't even really know me. I thought I had to keep watch over him, but that's covered now by his family. He doesn't need me and he never did. It would be best to remove myself entirely, but it's hard to let go, even after so long. I kept it buried for months and it all came back to me today. I regained a certain clarity and it's funny how it changes you. The whole world seems different, as if it’s normally distorted and I’m only just now seeing things clearly. I have a sudden awareness for all the things around me I didn’t care about before. It brings out something inside me that has been dormant for a long time. Even looking at the acorns outside and the ants scrambling along the sidewalk I feel something that wasn’t there before. In entomology, there’s a concept called synechthry which describes the relationship between ants and the invasive species that burrow near their hills for survival. There is a hostile relationship between them. They don’t gain from hurting each other, but they cannot coexist peacefully either. The ant doesn’t need the visitor, who is only a nuisance. Sometimes I feel like a synechthran entering unwelcome in his home, seeing his life fall apart and rebuild. He’ll never know about any of this. It hurts to see the way it all unfolds. Even if it hadn’t all crumbled this way, it would have been destroyed by another. It’s futile. People are fragile. As long as they are alive, you cannot save them. They will float through life evading trouble, but it will find them and overpower them eventually. If it has to happen that way, if there’s really no way to save him, then I want to watch him until the bitter end. I’m not the only one.

i stalked someone for 1-2 years, infatuated with their hair and style and lack of things i can find online

recently i added them and spoke to them for a few weeks. they sort of broke down when i told them everything and how im obsessed, and they knew me from 2 years ago when i tried to talk to them one time on facebook.

for weeks i was infatuated with them but also my obsession ended, i realized they're a normal person (even kind), with some issues

they even spoke to me a lot, they became sort of attached to me (told me im the reason they wake up for, they're not in a good space)

i ended up pushing them away acting childish and stupid and i ruined it all, i just cant have a friendship. i ruin it always with everyone. i dont know if this is BPD or what but whatever.

anyway obsession ended, until now, when i see this thread and the creep thread, and now im tempted to do it again. i loved their aesthetic and it was a major inspiration for me.

sage for samefagging but;

i was utterly insane with this person and ive never done this before, like i found who their friends were, archives of every single acc related to them, all photos i could scrounge off the web

in the end i found a friends discord server and i joined thru that pretending i dont know who they are. and then i got to become friends with them. i eventually told them whats up

none of this was healthy and it brought out this paranoia and deep obsession that ive never had before with anybody and its so weird but wow it was fun to do and it was motivating to sort of depersonalize this person and try to become what i thought they were

ofc i ended up meeting them as i mentioned and my obsession went away but i think im going to keep obsessing over this person and have it motivate me. like i could become them sort of . this is psycho stuff i think and idk if it will end well but this person checks off every tick for what i want to be, with some details i more or less take off / add on for myself

i dont know if any of this makes sense im just venting really

I still stalk my short-lived ex (our relationship was super short.) constantly, even 6 years later. I do not like him, I do not feel attached to him at all. I think he is quite ugly and he deviates from what I am currently attracted to. But I think there is a part of me when we dated that is still there that gets excited checking on him. When he dated me, I just got out of a really abusive relationship, and my home life was absolutely terrible. I placed him on a pedestal. He broke up with me because I was a crazy bitch. I'm healthier now and doing well, starting my career and being a normie stacy type of woman. I am not posting here or on LC that often anymore. But, like I said earlier, there is that part of me that likes thinking about him, and stalking him. He has cleaned up his socials but I found one he had where he posts sometimes and I get this obsessive urge to check it and see the small details of his life I can. I don't know why I'm like this and kind of want to stop. I sometimes want to run into him since we live in the same town still and some of his friends talk to me. I never ask about him but I just want to experience him seeing me, and this sounds vain as fuck but seeing how beautiful I am and whatever. I feel like a psycho typing this. Well

>I was a crazy bitch
It’s pretty refreshing to see someone own their behaviour in a relationship like this. For all the acceptance about mental health these days, admitting that you treated someone poorly is still pretty stigmatised, even if you’re not like that anymore or were acting because of trauma.

People can’t separate the crazy past part from the non-crazy present part. It’s like you’re forever judged by it. People don’t say “she was crazy when I dated her”, they say “she is crazy, and we broke up 5 years ago”.

I wish it was more acceptable to say “I used to be a crazy bitch but I’m not anymore” and not get backlash or people expecting you to act out. It feels like carrying a silent burden that you can’t ever share and must always be fearful that someone will bring it up.

Honestly this story is leading me more and more into cyberstalking my "Nigel". On one hand I know the whole spiel about trusting your partners but men in the age of porn and the internet can't be trusted to self regulate. Men are filter free and say who they really are online and around other men.
For the longest time this guy was pretending and lying to me that he wasn't using porn and was following what we had agreed to (even referring to things I had told him about why I didn't want to marry a porn user). Now he's suddenly casually talking about how it's needed for "speed" as if we never had a no porn policy before marriage and now I'm wondering what else he's just blatantly doing online that he lied in order to marry me. From mildly pressing I think his current mental bullshit is that it's ai so not porn? Wonder what other lies he's telling himself and me

I had something similar happen to me. I used to run a massive gore account on twitter and had a decently sized following, however other accounts would post about my content and make threads about how wrong my account was. Sooner or later this account was permanently suspended and I let it be. I didn't think about the digital footprint I left behind.
About a year later a friend in my friend group (who I had known since I was around 10) was asking for help to brainstorm a new online username since I'm the only person who could help her think of one on the spot that was catchy and/or sounded nice. I made a list of names and used a couple of usernames that I had used previously (the gore account's username was included, I added it because there were no names in use under the user) and let her pick. About a week later she and the rest of the group confronted me about the gore account and cut me off. I'm a pretty morbid person and there are a lot of things I was into that they did not care about but when they discovered my past gore account it crossed the line.
Digital footprint is very important, nonas.

Nonas, I have officially graduated to the level of spending money to cyberstalk someone–a moid I'm interested in. I paid $5 to look up his name in the local property registry, and sure enough his name came up as the buyer of a home in 2022 (I suspected this but wasn't sure). So anyway I now have his address and can walk past his house and briefly glance into the Windows, whereas before I was limited to information and images he intentionally published on social media.

I occasionally look at the Twitter and Instagram accounts of people I used to know from a now defunct social media website. I've been keeping tabs on people since 2018, a year before the site closed, but I find it comforting to look at the past and observe people.
Most of them haven't changed one bit and the most fervent bigots/generally edgy people have transitioned or believe in gender ideology funnily enough. I don't know what happened but they mellowed out.

One girl I met on this site years ago (in 2017, and we stopped talking in 2021) now has a baby. She's only 21. I know this because she unprivated her Instagram account recently and since that's a rare occurence I took the time to archive all that I could.
This made me sad and I feel so conflicted about all of this. It felt like only yesterday when we were watching anime on rabb.it (yet another defunct site) or playing Animal Crossing and talking about our lives and now she's been thrust into adulthood with all the responsibilities that entail. It was shocking for me to see how much time has passed since then.

I did this finally, I stalked this moid I was obsessing over out of curiosity. I knew that he has 3 children and two of them were born in the span of two years then… another one two years later but the year after his second child got born he got with a prostitute, so as the female blackpiller, blackpilled on human and in this context male nature I was obsessed with finding out the truth about it cause I was bitter that a moid got with an over a decade younger stripper and then dumped the stripper when he met over a two decades younger hot women. This man is a famous (but not a celeb) chad who seems insanely attractive but doesn't show his face, its too much to explain. So I found his first ex wife with whom he had children. I found it through some weird website, it showed me a bunch of names of people associated with him and I googled the woman name, found her Facebook and she posted a pic of herself with his children. He was married to her so it means that he dumped her and his 1-2yo children because he fell in love with a stripper the same day he met this bimbo stripper lol. He married the stripper, then dumped her in a very heinous way the same few weeks he met new younger woman. I can't.

-I have the username he always used, his address, and number. The issue is he's a very paranoid person even beforehand. Im sure it got way worse after his social life got basically ruined after the false allegation. I would not be

Try to make a list of what you have and think of what it might be connected too. Then try to figure out if you can check for those connections yourself.
Like if you have a tiktok or something it probably has videos of the place someone is, which you could look for things like license plates or street signs on to find a location and slowly narrow it down.
Or if you have an account that isn't connected to much you can use a website like https://www.idcrawl.com/username or https://www.user-searcher.com/ to look for more accounts with that username or a similar one.

If you have his middle name and birthday that can help you tremendously when it comes to narrowing him down. Associates and family members can help too, I can count on both hands how many people I've managed to find just by snooping through their family members profiles kek especially boomers.

Also note their locations, names and other family members they associate with. You can easily build a loose family tree which can help in gaining more leads in my experience.
