Although there has been a great deal of research into ’offline stalking’, at this moment in time there has been no formal research that attempts to classify cyberstalkers. This study aimed to identify a classification of cyberstalkers by interviewing victims. Twenty-four participants were interviewed and their responses logged on a 76-item Cyberstalking Incident Checklist. A typology of cyberstalkers was developed. }, number={9}, journal={First Monday}, author={McFarlane, Leroy and Bocij, Paul}, year={2003}, month={Aug.} }
