Someone ...a number from China keeps calling me. And when I pick up, they just say stuff in Chinese that I don't understand. And even when I reject the call, they leave voicemails and calls me like five times everday! And I even got a creepy email from China today too. I'm so scared what do i do? And, just know this, I don't know anyone in China. I don't have any relatives there either!

Keep records and first inform the phone company. Dont delete the emails because they can be traced. If you feel threatened inform the police.

How do you know the language is Chinese? I have a good ear for languages and I am not sure I could recognize a foreign language I don't understand.
You should get Caller ID if you don't already have it, and don't pick up calls that aren't from people you know. And you can delete those voicemails. If it keeps up contact your telephone service provider.
You can also block unwanted e-mails.
Chances are that this is relatively harmless--they are mistaking you for someone else. Possibly someone has a similar telephone number and they are calling yours by mistake.
I have had quite a few friends from China, and they are not bad people, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Chances are this is just a case of mistaken identity.

Stalking is something that must worry any one who thinks they are a victim of this practice. But to be stalked requires that both parties live in close proximity to each other at the minimum. What you seem to be going through right now is that somebody was able to get your email address in China and has just been using it indiscriminately. I suggest that if you can, change your address or deactivate the number this person is currently using.Once they find that the address is no longer active, they will move on to another innocent person that may have fallen victim to their scam. Unless something significant changes or happens, don't worry.

You need to chill out. Seriously... do you truly believe you have a Chinese stalker? It's probably just an honest mistake. If you're really frightened then call the phone company and have your number changed. They do it for free in instances where the person is being harassed.

its most likely just a mistake, you dont have a stalker. they probably dont understand english so they dont know they have the wrong number and you dont understand what their trying to tell you. maybe you should learn how to say "wrong number" in chinese lol...or stop answering their calls. they'll get the message.

check with the phone company and see if there's anything you can do to block these people-and alert the police to the situation just in case

Change your number, go to the poilce, etc, they'd know what to do plus they'd make sure you're safe and put a thing against him/her.

maybe you should tell your parents about it and let them decide wether or not it should be reported to the police. it can also be blocked from your phone and your e-mail by contacting both carriers.

report the calls to your phone company and change your number and keep it unlisted if you can.
