What about cyberstalking/harassment in the workplace?

Cyberstalking and harassment also frequently occur in the workplace, either because the perpetrator is unhappy with management or a fellow worker, or because they have been fired or not hired in the first place. Many cases occur when an employee feels they have been passed over for a promotion or raise, or denied a vacation/personal day/other perk.

We have also often seen situations where a business or employees acting on its behalf (with or without approval) have targeted a competitor or its employees. These are typically treated as commercial crimes and are often the subject of litigation between the competitors. It may also become the basis for regulatory agency actions (such as securities market regulators and trade or consumer commissions, such as the SEC or FTC or state consumer protection agencies in the United States).
