1. Cyberstalking | The Client's Case
This is the account of a client who sought the assistance of an attorney, stating that they faced the risk of punishment for cyberstalking and related offenses.
The client explained that they were charged with cyberstalking, intimidation, and a Network Act violation.
The attorney reviewed the facts of the case in order to defend the client, and the details were as follows.
The client explained that they had come to know a man through social media. The client developed an interest in the man and exchanged messages with him several times.
Afterward, the client also sent the man a gift voucher. As contact gradually became infrequent, the client put it out of mind, and upon later checking the gift voucher record, learned that the man had canceled the voucher without using it.
Displeased, the client contacted the man and asked whether he had used the gift voucher.
The man replied that he had used it well, and the client repeatedly sent disparaging messages asking why he was lying.
The man blocked the client's account, and the client, in an angry state, created several secondary accounts to distribute the man's personal information and post threatening writings.
As a result, the man filed a complaint against the client for cyberstalking, intimidation, and a Network Act violation, which led to this case.
