Narcissist Behavior Q&A
📣 They say they'll post my address, workplace, and phone number
Spreading your personal information directly threatens your physical safety. Capture the evidence of the threat and ask for help right away.
The short answer
Threatening to spread your address, workplace, or phone number can endanger your safety.
When this happens, try this
- Preserve the post URLs, their accounts, and the threatening conversations as untouched screenshots.
- Report doxxing to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). If they threaten to come find you or hurt you, don't hesitate — call 911.
Scenes like this
- They said they'd post your address and phone number on a forum.
- They threatened to spread your workplace and family details so strangers would come after you.
How to tell the difference
Raising a grievance is different from spreading your identity so others will harass you.
