Car Dealership Replied To My Bad Review By Doxxing My Address
I left a one star Google review for the car dealership I bought my vehicle from. They replied by calling my review fake and dropping my full address. I also received a message on Facebook an hour after leaving the review from a man who I don't know saying "I'm coming to see you." Imo this is clearly intimidation but I don't know what action I can take. Any advice would be appreciated. I live in NY.
Update: I spoke to an officer. He told me that since this occurred online and there was no explicit threat of bodily harm, that there isn't anything they can do. The information he posted was publicly available (my pictures from Facebook and my address can be found online.) However, he seemed pretty concerned about it and told me to call immediately if it continues and that he highly encourages me to pursue it in civil court for defamation. Thanks everyone for your advice. This has been pretty stressful/scary and I just hope the harassment doesn't get worse. I have documented and time stamped everything.
Update 2: I woke up this morning and immediately checked to make sure he didn't post more, but of course he did. In a Facebook comment he said "I'm not gonna dox him just yet." Along with a multitude of commenters poking at my sexuality and appearance. I'm going to get a consultation with a lawyer ASAP.
