Social media and cyberbullying

Is it anti-social behaviour (ASB)?

It could be if it's classed as a harassment.

What you can do

• Create screen shots of all harassment
• Block the person or people harassing you
• Have your friends/relatives block the people as well
• If the person calls you, do not answer the phone
• Do not respond to the person
• Provide the evidence and report it to the social media platform
