In many places, allegations of unauthorIzed access to computers and stalking are both criminal matters.


That means lawyers and police and potentially court.


How long has this reported access and this stalking been happening?


What are the indications of the reported access?


What steps to secure or re-secure your gear have you already taken?


The previously-mentioned Apple support article is a very good start, if this is a new problem.
