Being stalked on a wordpress site by someone with a wordpress.com address
-
How can I stop someone with a phoney email address spoofing wordpress.com from creeping my WP site? The site is open to the public.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
You can add a name or email address to a Comment Blacklist, blocking unwanted comments.
Go to My Sites > Settings > Discussion

The person doing the stalking doesn’t comment They just creep and “like” things but never comment. Very creepy. If we could trace them back or block them completely,,,,

They are using the email address (email visible only to moderators and staff). It is not an active address.

Hi there,
I know how annoying that can be, but since your site is public anyone with a WordPress.com account can use the Like button. Even if somehow we block their current account, what’s stopping them from creating a new one and start spam-liking again?
In my experience, they’ll like stop doing that soon, so please be patient.
