I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this in. Please feel free to move it to the right position or delete.

This is Karl Owen Thomas. All females on here who are on Instagram, be warned, for several months, he's pestered me each and every day, day after day, week after week, month after month, with never-ending follow requests. Often multiple times a day.

Always with the same photos but different ways of spelling his name, and with numbers in various combinations.

I've taken photos of his latest accounts and posted them on Facebook and Twitter.

He seems to have some type of twisted obsession with me, and I don't know if he's doing it to other females or not. I also don't know if he's pestering women on other social sites.

I've blocked and reported for bullying and harassment each and every time he sends me follow requests; nothing is ever done, and he never stops. He just keeps changing his name spellings and numbers to send me follows. I've tried contacting Instagram, but they never reply and never do anything to stop him.

Please be careful, ladies!

Can’t you shut down your account and start a new one with a different name spelling or something you can tell friends what and why you’re doing it because that sounds very very annoying

You need to remove this post immediately and change your insta.
You have given far too much away.
Your insta shows a photo of yourself, the name and the name of your husband.

Thanks for the warning but please heed Sago’s good advice

I now know where you live.
I have learnt about your business hobbies etc.
You must turn all your and your husbands accounts to private.

Also remove what you have put on X and FB.

All I had to do was click the link then put his name in Insta, it immediately came up with your account naming you husband etc.
Your accounts give birthdays, anniversaries and infringe you business.
You are leaving yourselves wide open to fraud.
