Neighbors Are Harassing Me For Try To Sell My House.

Card image cap

I inherited a house from my mom in the state of West Virginia. She bought it in 1994 and lived in it for 30 years with no issues at all with the neighbors. After I inherited it, I had some small renovations done and just listed it for sale. I should add that the house is very rural and has no neighbors in sight. Almost immediately some random neighbor, I've never met, started commenting on the Facebook listing of my house claiming their grandpa built the house and they want it back. They are acting like my mom stole it from them. They also said that the house is a piece of shit and is not worth how much we are asking for it and it will never sell. They left several long comments that were promptly deleted by my realtor. They then started messaging my realtor directly and told him that he is infringing on their freedom of speech and that he is an idiot for trying to sell their house. The next day they sent an email saying the same things again, but they also included five photos of my house. The photos are up close of my house and we're clearly taken from on my property.

They are insisting that the house will never sell and that we should just sell it to them for $30,000 and move on.

This has to be illegal right? What should I do?
