  • Harassment warning advice.

    Hi,

    I received a harassment warning close to a year ago roughly now from someone I was dating at the time, I haven’t contacted her since of course.

    I’ve had a new phone since then and all my contacts were gone, but I received a missed call from an unknown number which I called back and I believe it was her based on the voice. All was said was “hi I received a call from this number” and they said it must have been a mistake and that was all.

    I don’t know if I’m ****ed considering the circumstances, but I had no idea it was her but not really sure that’s a valid argument.

    Any advice?

    If you have a missed call from an unknown number, leave it to the caller to try again.

    You appear to have an explanation on this occasion.

      Thanks a lot.

      It was unknown in the context that it wasn’t withheld just a number who called me which I didn’t recognise but called it back within the same minute, I was waiting for a call from someone and thought it might’ve been them, but yes I see what you mean, it was just natural extinct to call back a unknown number.

        If she is trying to say that you 'called her' and she just dialed the number given to her by someone who knows your number, if you get what I'm saying. Then all you will ever have to do is provide your phone call records from your phone service provider. Just send them a Subject Access Request, costs nothing to you, they send your call logs, if she claims you are harassing her, then just produce your phone logs. This is all 'hypothetical', but you are armed with the 'evidence'.

          or take a screenshot showing the time of the missed call and another showing the time of your call back.

            I’m not sure how to quote replies on mobile but I don’t get what you mean by claiming that I called her and she dialed a number given to her? She called me firstly so I have evidence of this and the fact I called back within the same minute.

            but yeah, seems I have a strong argument to back this and especially considering I haven’t contacted her in almost a year (might be 7/8 months I can’t remember exactly) it seems doubtful I would call her.

              You say 'I’ve had a new phone since', she must of got your number from somewhere, to have called you, then you called her, that is what I am saying, does that make sense?. You just need to preempt, just in case because you sound worried or wait for things to unfold, if they ever do.

                Yeah so I’ve got a new phone not her, so she likely still has my number and I don’t have hers because I lost all my contacts, but I still have the same number so she might have my number still

                      Hi,

                      I don't see this option on my mobile but either way it doesnt matter, I'm on my PC now.

                      I have just received another call from the same number and I didn't answer it and I've just had a text come through straight after as an iMessage which says 'Who is this?' and the sender comes through as their email address (which is the girls name) so I can assume it is her. I'm not going to reply to the message obviously but I suspect they are trying to build up some sort of case against me

                          This is something I'm quite worried about as this is something I want to put behind me and move on with my life, I don't know if I should preempt things and call the police and mention what has happened or just leave it?

                            Had multiple more messages from said person saying 'who is this' and other things (non-abusive), I contacted 101 for advice but didn't give any of my details and they think it doesn't sound like you have breached any rules of what was said but advised to keep screenshots.

                            It does not look good on her part if she is messaging me things like 'who is this' and then subsequently calling the police to report me after saying she doesn't know who it is, unless she is doing it to pretend like I am calling her and she is messaging me after I've tried to contact her if that makes sense, which isn't the case.

                            I don't know if I have any routes to go down if she has made a complaint against me or is trying to claim I'm harassing her? As this does not seem right that someone should be doing such a thing.
