Zarkam is a social media user who notices that a stranger has been commenting on all of her posts and sending him private messages, despite the fact that he doesn't know the person. At first, the comments are harmless, but they gradually become more personal and threatening, with the stranger making explicit references to Zarkam’s home, workplace, and other personal details. Zarkam becomes increasingly frightened and feels like he is being watched all the time.

2.      The category of cyber-crime is online harassment.

3.      Possible prevention measures for such types of cyber-crimes are:

·         Reporting and blocking the user: If someone is making unwanted and threatening comments or messages, it is important to block and report them to the social media platform's support team. This helps in preventing further communication from the harasser.
