Extreme Coordinated Harassment

I wanted to document an extreme level of retaliation in a specific region on a systemic or highly coordinated level congruent to the level of gang or mob stalking. This goes well beyond simple disagreement and has reached the level of civil right violations, multiple felonies, and hate crimes. My story began when I moved up to WA in the early 2020s. I had just graduated college post pandemic and all my job applications in the local area had been ignored or quickly denied. I thought nothing of it at first.

However, as luck would have it an old friend I served with in the military just "happened" to be in the local area visiting. He said "Hey man if you can't find a job you're welcome to stay with me until you get back on your feet". I had little money and trusted this individual. I was in a vulnerable position. This person was still in the military at the time. So I began applying to a bunch of jobs in the region before heading to this persons city. I had ample experience a college degree and great references. Nothing. However, what I did get return calls about were low entry level jobs.

Jobs I was more than overqualified for. I came to realize later on this was an attempt to steer me into low level work to keep me trapped and limit my mobility. The was done by a combination of financial and digital sabotage, smear campaigns and retaliation done very sneakily to seem like just bad luck. It wasn't. So I moved in with my supposed "friend" and worked a short term seasonal job as I was getting denied on anything career related. Two months in my former friend calls me at work and says "I'm getting tasked to deploy you have a month to find your own place and I can't sublet." This was said almost robotically and cold, devoid of any sort of remorse. It was October and it had already snowed.

Snow was all over the ground and the temperature was in the low 20s. The same environment of the place I was at when enlisted. And funny enough the "friend" mentioned he was deploying as apart of a job that I happened to do while i was in as well. This wasn't a coincidence. It was catty mean girl antics by a collection of former military colleagues trying to instill vigilante justice outside of the military. This was in a insular community dominated by a few employers and a military base. Highly illegal. I was the one who got away. And they didn't like that. I strongly believe this former friend maliciously lured me up to the location under false pretenses to isolate me from support network to purposely destabilize me via coordinated coercive control.

This was post pandemic and he gladly agreed to "lend" to help me move up there. I believe he knew he was deploying when he invited me up. Luckily I was able to find housing. However, I still needed a job and as expected only thing hiring was a job paying minimum wage and all the other jobs mysteriously made up excuses or just never responded. This job was also almost an hour drive each direction in a time where gas prices were astonomical. I was in this job for about 6 months and like I said, Constantly steered towards low level jobs.

Three months into this new position my paid off vehicles gasket blew. It was on a friday night around 11 pm when heading home. The first financial domino. I called a tow truck who proceeded to purposely overcharge me three times the actual tow cost for 250 dollars. Why? Because I looked wealthy in my work uniform. He towed my vehicle to a local mom and pop shop that said they were "busy", and on the fourth or 5th day of my vehicle sitting there, I said F it and called my vehicle to be towed elsewhere. I still had to get to work, and rental for insurance vehicle would only last so long. So I called the same local tow shop and they informed me the cost to travel 3 times the distance of first tow was 1/3rd the price. Yeah F@*k me right? Dude swindled me expecting not to see me again.

They made the same tow truck driver tow it back down to the new location for free and i was riding passenger. Hehehe dude was squirming in the seat, I was completely silent the whole time. Pure cinema.
Anyways I had to now buy a new vehicle and this coincidentally was the exact month I had moved up to the location a year prior. Once I got a new vehicle is when the real shenanigans started. It was a nice sporty looking vehicle, but not expensive at all only about 18k but the previous owner took care of it. People immeidately started glaring at me, and cutting me off, racing me, and not allowing me to merge. A minority in a suit with a sporty looking car really pisses people off. It got so bad a dude in a light brown old pickup truck sped up and tailgated me acting like he was going to hit me. He then swerved over last second staring me down while driving.

This behavior translated to the workplaces as well. Being constantly set up for failure. Standard week long training to learn a job was cut short to two days and i was kicked to the shift due to "lack of coverage". Having to not only deal with entitled customers all day but coworkers, now upset you don't want to talk on breaks. If they have a crush on you or something and you don't return it now they are constantly trying to force interactions unncecessarily, acting passive agressive and complaining to get you fired. Apparantly you can't just do your job and go home nope. It was like annoying high school all over again.

I would report this issue to managment and nothing would happen. Same thing at multiple jobs. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Intentional behavior to antagonize an angry outburst this wasn't accidental. I would have customers that would seem to single me out specifically as if directed or instructed to. Here's a kicker. One of the customers asked me randomly what kind of car i drove. Two or three weeks later I was hit at a four way intersection by someone that ran a red light. Here's the kicker. The person in front of me was driving extremely slow not choosing a side until the last minute essentially forcing me into the left lane. I had a bad feeling before it happened the behavior was very weird. Next thing I know light turns green i go and this black car comes racing around the turn. This wasn't an accident.

My new car was now totaled. Domino number 2. The funny thing is the person who hit me had a sort of self satisfied smug look on her face she had her chin lifted up the whole time. She was apparantly under the influence but naw that was coordinated. The whole time I was looking for new vehicle my manager kept asking me constantly how my car situation was it seemed excessively intrusive beyond normal interest. Here's another thing I went down to a local car dealership and bought a vehicle. I remember excitingly mentioning how nice the car was and the salesman said unprompted like a douche: "I have a charger or camaro". Okay? He was blatantly trying to one up me.

The other salesman wasnt any better I was sitting in the main lobby by the door and the car salesman he was a bigger dude with red hair tried to make me move where i was sitting at. He kept saying you can go wait over there. It was pretty obvious he just didnt want some big minority scaring away customers. When i test drove the vehicle that day i mentioned a low tire pressure light. Redhead bob (his names not bob) said "okay i'll look at it". When i drove off it was still on. Two months in vehicle was lurching forward after start up when driving in parking lot on idle. Bad sparks plug. Three months in and the brake pad low indicator sound squeal.

Oh two weeks after i mentioned i just got a replacement vehicle my job fired me maliciously. You know the one where the manager was oddly asking constantly how my car situation was? Yeah they were waiting until i got a new vehicle to fire me to cause the most damage. But alas I ended up getting another job in health making twice the old salary starting at 70k. Oh boy the amount of passive agressive behavior from the jump. The moment i arrived my office light was flickering constantly like a strobe light. Yeah i'm sure nobody noticed this disco party in the office. Already on the bs. People would do things like subtly cut me off mid conversation or walk in when i'm in a meeting and interrupt it and say dismissively last minute "Oh sorry".

It got to the point i blatantly called someone out on it professionally. They proceeded to throw a temper tantrum in the hallway. I documented it immediately and sent it to supervisor. Luckily there was a camera. This was my trainer acting like this. Next thing i know she stopped reviewing my assigned tasks or giving any feedback. This went on for a month. The feedback they did give was overly critical and nitpicky like they were looking to build a paper trail. The head manager began micromanaging walking into my office asking if she could look over my shoulder. I remember one day I heard this loud booming voice in the office saying "How's everyone doing!?" Next thing i know this like 6'6" 250 pound dude walks past my office door flexing his arms, and heads into the head managers office (not the supervisor) where i heard "Love you. Love you too." So now I have a blatant obvious attempts at intimidation or a show of force by insecure management. I always stayed in my office wanting to ensure i was learning correctly.

Guess what? After i returned from my core job required class I found out they were sending the receptionist to the same class. Two weeks after i returned from that class they fired me, claiming they tried to help with my deficiencies but alas to no avail. Bs. It was 100% retaliation. So now two months in fired from another job. Bunch of crooks. Got another job and same thing. Job in finance. Went to the interview and before my interview, when checking in, they asked for me to sign a piece of paper for a background check. Before the interview. Violation of fair chance act. They asked to sign paper so no digital record. No official background check electronically because you know by law i have right to see results of check.

The whole time he kept correcting unecessary things like "Well actuaaaaalllyyyyyyy". There was no onboarding no official hr and they didnt send me an actual offer letter. I had to professionaly request one and refused to show up without one. Before my first day this dude the "well actuaaally" guy was very curt in emails no salutations no proper professional behavior dude was just passive agressive and catty. He would act polite in front of other workers but would act overly performative in private as if he felt threatened by me or something status wise. They also were asking excessively intrusive questions like where i get my hair cut, what car i drive, do i have a gf, emergency contact info all done by the manager not hr.

Dropped about 300 pages of paper the first day and said to sit there and read it even though a pdf version was availble for the computer. Dude lost his damn mind. I believe this was all to force me to quit via constructive discharge so I would be ineligible for unemployment. Two months later got another job same thing happened. Churn and burn to one: prevent income and to two ruin my professional reputation. This crucade also went into my housing as well. Right around the time I got the finance job my apartment complex was agressively calling me about renewal.

This place was notorious for not giving proper notice of entry or giving blanket entry notices. I constantly was rejecting these notices. Fast forward and i applied to be a leasing manager. Always was on good terms with apartment management. Well when i renewed my income was revealed. This is when behavior of manager took a complete 180. When i applied to work there I experienced immediate domineering behavior. My income pissed her off. During the interview she would be talking negatively about coworkers, putting them down. I also noticed she was wearing a sling and complaining about how she has to do everything herself, and nobody helped everyone was incompetent. This was most likely a ploy to elicit sympathy. Also during the meetings employees would walk in mid meeting interrupting and one of these people was a member of maintenance. He intrusively walked in mid meeting turned to me and said curtly "Can I have the room?"

This guy was the one who I believe with 99.5% certainty later on began sneaking into my apartment and moving things around. He felt threatened by me and these type of people are the ones who like to retaliate sneakily against people who make them feel inferior by just existing. So fast forward and I ended up turning down the job. However, they tried enticing me with a free rent stipulation beforehand in job offer but nowhere in the fine print did it say it was guaranteed. It seemed like an attempt at endentured servitude. It said I was "eligible" for rent waive not guaranteed. So what would happen if i piss them off. Oh now i'm all of a sudden on the hook for 9 months of rent? That is an insane amount of control over someone no thanks.

That little maneuver was a huge redflag. Also I remember her mentioning a resident to watch out for that would show up at the office yelling, and who took her to court and tried to file a restraining order. After i reveal what i dealt with I know exactly what happened. Anyways I turned down the job and informed higher ups a warning because I saw very quickly what kind of person this was. She was dangerous. Fast forward a month or so and now i walked into my room to find napkins strewn all over the bed and floor. Maintenance had just been fixing the fridge. Reported to manager. No response.

This is when the stomping of upstairs neighbors began. Right around this time is when I also lost my third vehicle in a row. Not a coincidence. Before this occured I also was called by my storage saying i randomly had to move my outside things into a inner storage unit due to "being too close to marshland" but here's the kicker. No official documentation this was all done over the phone. I believe this was a bunch of bs to see if i was still in the local area. Before i lost my vehicle i was costantly getting flat tires as if someone was letting the air out. I remember i took my vehicle to a les schwab and some prick put liquid sealant on my tires getting it all over my 400 dollar rims. He also didn't wait for it to dry before driving so a bunch of specks were all over my paint.

Grown adults here acting like this. I remember I went to a job agency because I wanted to work. Guess what happened soon as I walked in because i looked disheveled, a manager working there for close to a decade she immediately rushed me into a side room slapped a background check on the table and then walked out like she had better things to do. When i then went into the office and she saw my resume she sneered because my appearance didn't match the exploits on paper. She probably thought I was making things up. She asked sarcastically "Did you get help getting this job?" She essentially was doing what insecure people do when a minority has more experience than them. Minimize and attribute it to DEI or equal opportunity. What other sort of help would she be referring to. She then mentioned only available position was a job which was 12 hr shifts essentially negating my experience and steering me into manual labor.

I reported the hell out of that person. If she was doing that to me she was def doing that to other people. Her job is literally to help people find work. And funny enough i had more experience than her. Fast forward and I applied in a education setting. Person on interview panel requested i authorize a background check two days before the first interview. Illegal. Again. I declined interview and forwarded message to hr leadership. Next thing I applied to work in a warehouse job.

Same high school antics and bs I have a disability that was impacting my behavior and how i may come across. Tried being proactive and letting management know. Nothing. Same thing reported issues no change until i escalated. Faced retaliation. Quit. Rinse. Wash. Repeat. Applied to work at another job. Guess what? I remember someone from the first warehouse job had randomly asked me my last name. When i went into this building for processing of onboarding we all had name tags issued. When she called my last name and I went up to grab my tag she dropped the phrase the woman used from the first job. It was essentially her way of saying: "The Lannisters send their regards Surprise mf'er" sort of like Sgt Doakes from Dexter but it came across as more of a "Hail Hydra" I already knew I was about to deal with some bs. I thought to myself: "Ah sh*t here we go again."

As soon as the nametags were issued the trainer had everyone go in the classroom first and it led to me being forced to sit right in the front of the class. The whole time The trainer began essentially posturing mentioning salary their exploits and accomplishments. Then a guest speaker appeared who mentioned a fun fact of having degree as a software or computer software game engineer. I then began to be singled out and the trainer even stared me down in front of everyone. I would answer a question and they would ignore me. Or they would quickly snap at me if i started something too early they would be like: "We havent started yet!" and they would try to soften their hostility by adding: "But good job being proactive." Just domineering behavior. Funny enough I also ran into someone ironically connected to this location when i was working at the previous job a couple months prior. It was 5:30 AM and they had tried speaking to me when waiting on public transit. AT 5:30 AM IN THE MORNING. I obviously didn't want to speak. I was still in idle, but this person took it personally like MJ and held this grudge for 3 or 4 months. FML

I found this grudge out on my first day on the job where i dealt with the trainer issue when I ran into that same 5 AM woman. I didn't know it was her at the time, but I noticed when walking to transit that morning, across the street a woman kept angrily glancing over at me, and walking haughtily as if ticked off. She kept glancing over glaring. I thought: What's her deal? She's acting like i kicked her dog. We end up on the same transportation and I figured she's having a bad day. But funny enough I turn and ask this person a question not recognizing her from months prior, and she immediately says: "You look familiar." I have no idea who she is. She then adds- "Yeah we spoke before and you were like"- and she makes a shooing motion with her hand.

Yeah she is upset about three months prior a random stranger didn't want to talk. She is wanting me to apologize for some percieved slight. Like waaaa what is even happening I am a stranger do you know how many people don't want to speak in the morning? I didn't apologize. She then walks off and sits with someone who sort of resembles the woman who asked for my last name from previous job as if they could be relatives. She and the relative of person then follow me to where i was sitting on transit, and the petty woman with grudge then proceeds to ask me about my background. I know she's gathering info but i have zero intentions of returning. This kind of person is dangerously petty i could just tell. During this conversation another person on the transit kept interupting the conversation.

He began grilling me about things and just seemed overly angry as if they had some beef. The dude then gets off the transit and asks me where i live with a bright red face. Meanwhile I have people purposely stomping above me while i'm sleeping to keep me awake and try to antagonize. Didn't work just reported them. This occurred during move in of my apartment I had signed a renewal lease. The people above me had been incessantly stomping from the moment they moved in. I went upstairs politely asking them to quiet down the noise and the walls are thin. No stopping. Got to the point I informed the front office who of course ignored it. Escalated to corporate. No change.

A month after leaving the warehouse job I was hacked or phished. When on chatgpt I was speaking and then the words completely changed. I asked it to give me a call sign and it completely changed ans said "how about Null life...pwned." I was like wtf? And they said "I've been looking for you for a while now. You've been getting away with things since way back when" and they give a date and then mention "pretty privilage". I thought oh sh*t this is a haters final form. Malignant envy. Next thing I know I begin being swarmed with phishing and begin to get fake emails one which mysteriously appeared when i was having a phone conversation.

I click on this link one of these links a fake phishing site of my apartment complex after I had to make police reports. I clicked on this link and instantly my phone was compromised and someone was able to see on my phone and my screen began moving as if by accessibility gestures. Apps would open and move around. They got into my icloud and began putting things in their. They got into my router and locked me out of it. I was locked out of multiple emails. But all of this didn't occur until my roommates moved out. A week before they moved and i was notified it would be just me there the front door was able to just be pushed open after unlocking with key fob versus needing to turn handle. As if jimmied.

Once it was just me i began noticing at 2 am things would be moved around like boxes would begin shaking in living room. I would walk outside and my door would be unlocked. Or I would wake up to find things in my room moved around. One time my keys were taken and dissapeared. I would come home multiple times to find my belongings in my closet rummaged through. It was that one maintenance dude. Other things happened as well. My room would become instantly humid and the air dry and stale as if someone was interfering with the ventilation. I would become instantly sleepy and would have a headache and find it difficult to fully breathe. I would then wake up to find my iphone unlocked. This is when I was speaking with lawyer and reporting things to corprate.

I also was subsequently locked out of multiple emails and recovery emails all with documentation to corporate from multiple jobs and these were all stuxk in a recovery loop. My headphones that had whisper pair exploit someone would join via bluetooth and inject vocal audio like: "Boo!" when i was sleeping. When my landlord found out I was on disability is when the cyber harrasment exploaded. I had a phone using local wifi that was seo poisoned or dsn hijacked and someone manioulated search algorithm on youtube to show me specific people from different locations essentially a digital theatre. Whatever I would say someone would make a snarky reference to in public.

Randomly smoke detectors would indicate low battery and beep and maintenance acted like they repaired it but didnt actually swap out the batteries. Or each time I would complain i would have some retaliatory action or entry notice. When they found out about noise sensitivity I then had super loud outdoor generators and was bombarded with low frequency noise from next door neighbors. People were litetally streaming and viewing my phone screen. Whenever I would pause a show, reset or try to change icloud password or something a train horn or my upstairs neighbor would stomp. Each time a new iphone update drops I become extremely sleepy as if being gassed.

I wake up with a headache at like 6 pm or they would wake me up super early and if i do somehow update the noise and sleep distruption is used to make me forget password and i have to take it to apple store. Eventually I downloaded the official apartment app to pay rent and request accomodation and instantly i was kicked out of the app when logged in. I would log back in and kicked out. After the third time I was hit with a this property location has been disabled someone from management manually disabled my portal access to prevent me from downloading ledgers or leases.

Then all of the staff in the office dissapeared overnight and was replaced by a skeleton crew who claimed they now have new managment and changed the property name. Except never recieved any official notification of a name change. I have not been given back any portal access and i was instructed to pay wity check or money order. I think the person was caught manipulating ledgers by back end data as those apps are managed by large cloud storage companies. I was able to catch the account disabled because I was on app. Oh also people began following me around. Prior employees would intercept me at each time I would leave somewhere one person who happened to be walking back same time as me? Yeah it was my next door neighbor. Or the day i was doing my pre employment onboarding at warehouse? Yeah someone from the first location prior happened to be right there intersecting me.

This went as far as i lost 10k dealing with this. I would buy a new phone from a cellular provider and the person behind the counter would be messing with the screen and multiple phones would be all moving eraticcally this person at store i believe was connectint my phone to a bluetooth or a hotspot infecting it with a connection or pushing adware. One time he even called the store phone with my phone without permission. I filed police reports and nothing. This is a small insular area and many of these jobs are connected I was essentially blacklisted.

This individual went as far as reaching out to smear my name with old classmates, and it's pretty bad. The money dealing with the hacking was intentionally done to prevent me from leaving or getting back on my feet. I sent proof of disability to landlord and immediately on the phone the algorithm said videos with "free money glitch" or calling me a crook. They then began a campign to discredit me even the VA hospital began retaliating. My vocational rehab was sabatoged to help me find work because envious people wanted to essentially strip me of my status, money, and this is a blatant civil rights violation. Using digital tresspass to terrorize a disabled veteran. The apartment comples even now keeps sending me blanket entry notices like a "pre-move out inspection" scheduled for a week long from entry between 8 am to 6 pm.

I rejected the entry and this morning around 10 am I heard a knock on my door with nobody announcing themselves, that could be easily mistaken for a knock on a neighbors door. I then heard the door open. And luckily i was still in my room with my door closed and I shouted: "Hey!" as they just walked in with no announcement. They were in living room and said "Oh i'm here for move out inspection" I replied "You didn't give proper notice or identify yourself when knocking you just walked in!" They than said "oh okay we'll be back tomorrow". I called the cops.

It's not just apartment staff either local grocery stores in this small town would purposely undercook my rotisserie i ordered, which was making me sick. One time someone took a bite out of my pizza. Just constant attempts to antagonize me into freaking out. The same exact thing the manager was referring to when i applied to work their. They were 99.9% doing the same thing to this individual, but he didn't have the self control that I do. Purposely hoping for a reaction to label me dangerous this is serious felony crime here. Based on nothing but smear campaigns. The person they spoke about would show up to office yelling because most likely they were probably sneaking in and moving things around, which is attempted gaslighting. And he even took this person to court but because he reacted in anger they used this against him.

Even when I tried to get a new apartment they messed with apartment rental apps flooding it with fake apartments. When i did my taxes yeah someone literally followed me to the local library and used the cyber trespass to look at finances. And when someone rummaged through things I mean they were opening up boxes and I am not surprised if they even put cameras in my room. or apartment. How would old classmates or coworkers be contacted? Well my documentation in my room had old military and or other information on them. I would call organizations meant to assist with this and people on their would give me wrong information purposely. I am being blackballed at the highest levels.

When i went to a recent Doctor visit at VA on the scale against the wall their was a stencil that said "faking...." in the hospital. When walking down hall a person wearing a uniform that is no longer authorized was using it as some public theatre. I had discussed my service using ai and guess what? Because people were illegallly listening veterans were doing some public theatre speaking about "throwing snowballs" and people in the office waiting room were playing low frequency sound and slamming doors. All based upon hearsay vigilante justice and illegal retaliation. Oh my old barber? Yeah this person randomly asked me when I sat down in my chair after not seeing this person for 8 months if i was on disability.

I would arrive places when they were trying to figure out my situation and there would be a random veteran happening to be behind the counter using friendliness to bypass boundaries and collect information. I was speaking to someone i thought was a veteran about being happy to be able to improve myself and they used it to smear me. I had a friend I was the best man at his wedding randomly text me unprompted: "You just want money" trying to set me up when i asked for help filing. They tried to blacklist me. Then when i got other means to survive they turn around and call me a bum and to get a job like they weren't just trying to keep me jobless. This is what spending close to a decade of your life does. Members of the military still retaliating a decade after you seperated like they have any say still clinging like they have some say in your personal life. Absolutely ridiculous.
