Charlotte Hooper , 20 , from Essex , was targeted by an X-rated chat forum.
Pictures of her from age 16 onwards were posted on Reddit forums with names like “r/IWantToFuckHer” by an account that shared them “with really sexual comments” In one, the poster asked others to rate her out of 10 ; in another, they asked men to ejaculate on her image.
Ryan (not his real name) was one of her more persistent followers.
Hooper got a lot of DMs, some of them daily, but ignored him for five years .
By the time she was at university, her internet presence was declining.
She reported him to the police but he was cautioned under the Malicious Communications Act .
Up to 700,000 women in the UK are believed to become victims of stalking each year .
Cybercrime makes up half of all crime but only 5% of police resources are allocated to it.
Despite her expert knowledge of the subject, it took Hooper years before she called what was happening by its name.
She wishes she had pushed for stalking and harassment charges.
