About Us

It is a fact that women who live alone have become tempting targets for surreptitious home invaders. Women increasingly report home intruders who play a long game of psychological terror through vandalism, theft, stalking, harassment, and cyber crimes, apparently for a variety of purposes: First, it appears that intruders want to frighten a woman from her home, giving the house a negative history, so that they can take over or buy the woman’s property at a deep discount. If a woman spends time in travel or a second home, there is evidence that intruders aim to utilize the property in a fraudulent rental scheme. Women have been shocked to learn that unknown intruders have listed their homes for rent on reputable websites. They have seen videos on their home security cameras of people being shown around their homes, obviously when the women are absent. Evidence points to the existence of a criminal ring or rings, with ties to real estate, especially rentals, and home construction. So far women are known to be under siege in five states.

There are also instances whereby intruders appear not to have a financial motive. Instead, the home invaders comprise a woman-hating conspiracy, whose members take sadistic pleasure in removing the woman’s privacy and peace of mind. They try to take total control of the woman and her home through terror methods that sound far-fetched so that the woman is discredited as having a mental problem when she reports what is happening, even to friends and family.

The specific tactics of carrying out the criminal harassment, intimidation, and stalking, described below, reportedly came into existence on the dark web, where they were formulated by these “hobbyist” home intruders. Victims in cases known so far are all women, tending to be older, and owning desirable homes and other property. By choosing older women as their target, criminal intruders take advantage of a stereotypical view of older advantaged women as "spoiled," silly, helpless, even demented, and therefore not in possession of the faculties necessary to engage law enforcement. So far, this approach has worked, in that law enforcement has not been helpful in the known cases. Some police have ridiculed women who sought their assistance and made unfounded claims that the woman suffered from mental illness and reported the women to mental health “crisis counselors” in the law enforcement community.

Predatory Intruder Practices

This is a brief description of the current long-term terror attacks reported by women. Hopefully there is enough information for a victim to learn she is not alone and can speak her mind about the crimes by which she harmed. There is strength in numbers. This website is designed with the hope that women who have been targeted by a criminal ring—or who knows someone else who has—will join an effort to engage law enforcement more effectively and to find ways to get and keep the criminals out of women’s lives. It is time to see these cruel misogynists in prison. Their activities are known in five states so far. They engage in far-fetched plots to humiliate and diminish a woman, invading her privacy and peace of mind as they attempt to destroy her lifestyle. As one district attorney’s office has said, they turn a woman’s life into a horror movie.  The horror includes physical harm to a woman from electromagnetic radiation directed at her home.  Pets are also harmed by radiation and bruising attacks when the criminal intruders make clandestine entries to the home.  The criminals use electromagnetic radiation and also engage in violence, stalking, harassment, and cybercrimes.  They invade device software especially Wi-Fi from the victims computer, phone, and other devices.  Security cameras are taking over for the purpose of deleting and hiding of video clips.

Criminal intruders disable a woman's alarm and security cameras.

For starters, criminal intruders disable a woman’s alarm and security cameras through in-person alterations of hardware and cybercrimes that create a “back door” to the security systems. Thus there is no evidence of a break-in, making it difficult to get an alarm company to locate the problem and to engage with law enforcement. They invade device software, especially Wi-Fi, for the purpose of taking over the victim’s computer, phone and other devices. Security cameras are taken over for the purpose of deleting and hiding video clips that would reveal criminal activity and to show amateur videos of bizarre or threatening scenarios.

This makes stalking possible. Women report that they are followed and watched during shopping, socializing, and travel.

Stalking on the highway is common. Women describe being run off the road. The automobile of a woman under siege was rammed from behind by a hit-and-run driver.

Through surveillance, criminal ring members have claimed merchandise ordered by the victim, gotten access to prescription medicine at the victim’s pharmacy, stolen the victim’s clothes by picking up her dry cleaning, and gained access to bank safe deposit boxes. When a victim attempts to identify the vehicle being used to stalk her, she usually learns that the license plate used by the stalker does not exist in state motor vehicle records. The auto may be leased, and may driven by a woman accomplice of the criminal ring.

Criminals evade identification and capture.

The woman does not see or catch her assailants because they monitor her whereabouts to prevent their being apprehended, and they move with stealth; also her security defenses have been removed. However, she immediately becomes aware that exterior and interior locks, as well as property gate locks, have been picked, and intruders have entered her home. Window locks have been broken as well, rendered useless, to allow easy entry to intruders.

Or the woman’s first inkling of intrusion may be the unsettling discovery that all the drawers in her kitchen have been “tossed.” She will probably find safes, including gun safes, opened and rendered unusable through changed combinations.

The emotional effect on the victim is akin to a robbery or home invasion, feelings of having been violated and of having lost control of her home. In an effort to protect herself and her home the woman may isolate herself instead of fighting the intruders.

Broken Window Glass

The woman’s home and possessions are vandalized.

The woman’s home and possessions are vandalized, sometimes while the woman is at home but she does not hear or see intruders. Sometimes she is asleep. If they have time alone in the house, intruders will steal high-end home finishes and replace them with cheap, worn items. Vandalism to antiques, furniture, upholstery, carpets, bedding, and painted walls and trim occur on a regular basis. A common action by intruders is destruction of a kitchen cabinet door by wrenching it off its hinges.

Criminals also attack the electrical system of a woman’s home. Recessed ceiling lights flicker. There is electrical interference, termed “dirty electricity," which can result in effects that are felt physically by residents. The electrical panel may be overloaded to create multiple problems that never existed before: light fixtures, appliances, and motherboards of appliances burn out, for example. Criminals concentrate on causing constant small inconveniences as well: an expensive new hair dryer or a CD player may burn out when plugged into an outlet.

At the exterior, patio pavers, night lighting fixtures, and irrigation systems have been damaged. Landscape plantings have been killed or stunted, treated with defoliants.

Automobile keys are located and copied remotely through use of digital devices used by car thieves. Heavy, oily staining of automobile seats and carpets occur and scratches appear on the interior dashboard and doors, and exterior. Radio and other dashboard devices are disconnected, possibly due to activation of surveillance devices.

The victim realizes intruders have examined the home.

Next, the victim realizes that intruders have examined all or most of her home’s contents. Closets, bureaus, desks, cabinets, and other storage units have been rifled.

Women have reported the following rifling and theft of vital financial information:

    • Home titles and insurance documents.
    • Banking items – checkbooks, account statements and passcodes, safe deposit box keys.
    • Estate planning documents – wills and trusts, including identities and social security numbers of beneficiaries.
    • Life insurance policy files.
  • Calendars, past and present providing snapshots of a victim's activities.
  • All receipts for valuables – antiques, art, jewelry, china, silver, and linens.
  • All receipts for home appliances – kitchen, laundry, HVAC, and other devices are stolen and replaced with items of the same brand, but old and inferior, often with fake labels that cite the model and serial number of the stolen appliances.
  • All receipts for women’s clothing.
  • All receipts for all remaining home devices – computers, phones, fixtures, and other contents.
  • Photos and videos of all the above home contents were stolen to removing proof for criminal investigation.
  • Documents intended for law enforcement concerning theft and vandalism – both printed and digital.
  • Family history information – family photos, family tree, obituaries, for example, and other documents that could assist in impersonation and identity theft.

A sense of false security may be fostered if intruders photograph, instead of removing documents: financial and other personal information seen by invaders, increasing the sense of violation that the victim feels. The woman has to face the possibility of identity theft.

Possessions are stolen from the home.

Many valuables such as jewelry, designer clothing, and silverware are stolen, but often insignificant, even silly items as well: tooth brushes, worn support hosiery, leftover containers. By use of this tactic, the woman victim is made to look ridiculous or even demented if she is thorough and includes mention of minor items in a police report. Intruders routinely take hard copies of documents and photographs detailing their criminal acts, meant for law enforcement. (When assailants steal information about themselves, it is because they feel threatened by the information, thereby alerting victims they are on the right track when they report all stolen items.) Thieves round out the thefts by sometimes returning a stolen item, again to discredit the woman when she tells others, especially the police, something has been returned.

Surveillance devices are hidden in houses or cars.

It does not take long to realize that surveillance devices are hidden in the victim’s home and automobile. Surveillance cameras can be the size of the tip of a pinky finger, or even smaller, and disguised in everyday items such as an ink pen, so the devices are difficult to find. At great expense, one can hire a security expert to do a “bug sweep,” but even without a sweep, the victim suspects surveillance is in use because home invaders show that they know most of what is going on with the woman—when she plans to leave the house, where she is going, whom she will see, and when she will return, for instance. Also an obvious surveillance device may be put in the home in a place where privacy is most expected, in order to horrify and unnerve the victim. The presence of intruders watching from outside is underscored by the use of firecrackers, fireworks, and gunshots in close proximity to the woman’s home, meant to intimidate.

Electronic devices are hidden in the home.

Bluetooth speakers are apparently used as part of a “dirty tricks” and noise campaign to harass and intimidate. The woman’s first experience of this type is often a thunderous sound in the middle of the night that seems to shake the walls. In this way criminals seek to intimidate the woman in a very early stage of harassing her. After this introduction, sound effects during the day or night may mimic a crying child or animal, impolite digestive tract sounds, loudspeaker feedback, persistent machine-like humming, or unidentifiable bumps and thumps inside or on the roof. The intruders are able to stop and start the sound effects. They stop entirely if the woman brings an outsider to the home to verify the noise is present. If any other person is in the home, the noises stop because the noises are not only to unnerve the woman, they are to make her appear crazy when she tells others about them.

Use of Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Against Victims’ Homes

EMF radiation-emitting devices include everyday electronics, appliances and electrical equipment such as phones, computers, microwave oven, refrigerators, induction stoves, TVs, hair dryers, etc. These devices emit radiation that is harmful to individuals with electrical sensitivity. More widely, however, scientists have shown that high levels of such radiation can cause neurological, cardiac, respiratory, opthamological, and dermatological harm to a large range of people without high sensitivity.

Criminal rings seek to use EMF to make a woman’s home so intensely uncomfortable that it will affect her judgment and cause her to abandon her home, so that criminals can purchase the home at a deep discount and/or rent the home. They use an electromagnetic device aimed at the woman from outside the home, intended to emit radiation, especially in her bedroom during night hours. Their cruel goal is to bring about sleeplessness and sleep deprivation, which can cause disorientation, anxiety, concentration problems, confusion, depression, ears ringing, fatigue, headaches, nose bleeds, nausea and tremors. The radiation causes, in addition, heart, dental, vision, and skin rash/acne problems. Chest pain, changes in blood pressure, and vision deterioration occur. The temperature of the skin is elevated, extremities, hands and feet, are heated. Digestive stomach roiling, diarrhea, and vomiting are also common. Domestic pets are especially sensitive to the radiation, suffering pain from digestive and other human effects. Criminals make it a practice not only to harm pets, but also to enjoy owners’ distress over their sick animal friends. Use of the EMF device is further accompanied by a shrill, high-pitched noise in the sleeping area, amounting to torture of humans and domestic pets. These sadistic uses of EMF are widely considered torture even when utilized in military battles.

The torture devices are thought to be portable enough to be carried by criminals, possibly effective up to 800 feet from a victim; they are probably manufactured by companies outside the United States. So far their composition, indeed existence, with regard to private individuals, has not come to the attention of U.S. law enforcement. However, for some years, American CIA, diplomatic and other embassy employees outside the U.S., have been exposed to powerful, harmful EMF devices. For example, in Cuba, the radiation, referred to as the Havana Syndrome, caused physical harm to a number of U.S. embassy employees. Recently, outside the White House, a U.S. government employee was attacked by EMF radiation, and in early 2026 the government obtained an EMF weapon small enough to fit in a backpack. The device is being studied; it is likely that a version of this type of weapon is responsible for the many private U.S. individuals who have reported EMF symptoms, (despite their being considered crazy, as for a long time were the Havana Syndrome and other victims.)

PROTECTION AGAINST EMF

There are various forms of protection from EMF radiation in the home, though the United States has not progressed as far as the UK, Germany, Canada, and other countries. The first step is to have a meter that shows the amount of radiation in the home, measured in the U.S. as microwatts per square meter. The Safe and Sound Pro II Broadband RF Meter is a good one to purchase, sold by the Canadian company, Safe Living Technologies, Inc., along with many more of the items used for protection: for example, paint, window film, fabrics, and bed canopies. Another reliable company is Less EMF, in Latham, NY. EMF rays cannot pass through lead. Lead paint for exterior walls, applied inside or outside, is protective. Similarly, lead window film or lead-containing curtain fabric may keep out 99% of rays. In the bedroom, top, bottom and hanging canopies over the bed may stop 99% of radiation. These two companies can furnish sources of information about protection from EMF. Finally, don’t miss out: there is a lot of information about EMF radiation online.

PROSECUTION OF EMF CRIMES

The use of electromagnetic devices described above in this website is assault, perhaps assault with a deadly weapon, and pernicious domestic pet abuse. Current laws should apply when perpetrators engage in the use of radiation to inflict harm.

These crimes, — added to grand theft, stalking, intimidation, harassment, breaking and entering, home invasion, surreptitious surveillance where privacy is called for, vandalism of homes and vehicles, and cybercrimes along with cyber-facilitated crimes — should give rise to lengthy prison sentences. Only serious attention to these crimes, mostly against women, will cause criminals to abandon their terrifying behavior. For that to happen, local and higher law enforcement entities must begin to recognize the harm being done.

Intruders engage in cyber crimes in an effort to control.

In addition to hacking of their security cameras and alarm systems, women report hacking of their phones, computers, and other devices. Criminals listening in on women’s phones have exercised control of a woman’s life by filtering which calls and messages from friends and family will get through to her. The criminals have “spoofed” phone calls and emails to victims to interfere in their business and personal lives.

The cyber crimes encountered by women are not usually viruses. Real-time hacking occurs online, for example, interference with scheduling appointments or making purchases online. Pages of computer “code” sometimes accompany these obvious hacks. The financial resources necessary to fund many individual hacks on numerous victims point to big business/criminal rings as perpetrators, using offshore low-cost hackers. Hackers drove one victim, a psychologist, out of her phone practice through phone calls interrupted by constant noise and dropped calls. It is sinister that one woman needing to schedule a COVID-19 vaccine was hacked in a fashion that prevented her from making an online appointment.

Hackers have the ability to hack documents and even websites. This website was hacked by deleting the phone number: its contact information to assist victims was changed by hackers, by deleting the phone number and substituting it with a non-working phone number.

One woman has stated that she cannot connect by phone with a second victim of the intruders to discuss how to stop them. When this same woman sent her computer to a criminal forensics lab, she learned that hackers had access to everything she did through a combination of three common apps that had been installed on the computer; the hackers had been able to delete evidence they had added the apps. Yet One woman, who had composed a lengthy document about the criminal ring intended for law enforcement, found that forty pages had disappeared from her computer, and her backup device also had been wiped so she was unable to transfer the information to a new drive. Victims have encountered difficulties finding help with these cyber issues: though cyber crimes are primarily federal crimes, federal law enforcement authorities claim that cyber crimes are in the purview of local police. Some local police departments appear to have little knowledge of solving cyber crimes and little interest in addressing them.

The federal crime of mail fraud is practiced.

Interference with mail delivery is carried out, by non-delivery of a woman's mail. Her outgoing mail is intercepted through her return address on envelopes, and the intercepted mail is stolen. She will receive most of her incoming mail, but her outgoing mail will not reach intended recipients.

Practices to Help Counter Home Invasion

Silhouette of person punching at sunset.

FIGHT BACK

Fight back. Make sure invaders know you will not surrender your home or submit to their control. Record and safeguard evidence of criminal activity, for example: video clips and fingerprints of home intruders; photos of damage done by home invaders; and license plates and VIN numbers of vehicles used by suspected stalkers.

REPORT HARASSMENT

Report harassment, intimidation, theft, cybercrimes, and stalking to law enforcement authorities with confidence and assurance; keep records of what you have reported, to whom, and when.

UTILIZE HOME SAFETY ITEMS

Utilize home safety items, available at the hardware store, in order not to depend for security solely on electronic devices, which offer hackers a wider platform for cyberattacks, for example:

Place surface bolts at inside top or bottom of all doors to the exterior. These should be 10 inches in length and raised or lowered into the top door frame or bottom threshold. At all times while at home a woman must engage the bolts. These can be placed on the interior of doors as well; an example would be in the room where you sleep.

Door security bar on white door.
Blurry black door handles on white doors.
Garage door lock mechanism on wall.
Garage door with metal rail and window.

Add surface bolts, one on each side of every exterior overhead garage door, with bars from door to frame. These prevent doors from being opened from the outside. Do not depend on remote control, and outside keypads, which can be easily jammed by intruders.

  • If feasible have security screen doors installed on all exterior doors, with the best locks one can afford.
  • Place wood or metal dowels in horizontal sliding windows or door tracks; these can also be used, placed vertically in single-hung windows.
  • Use extra window locks that clamp onto the frames of sliding glass windows or single-hung windows.
