This will be a long one. Will try to keep details vague on the off chance the neighbour is on here.
We live opposite this woman, and over the last few months she has sat in her front window and watched us everyday. Harmless enough, maybe she is bored.
Then she started making gestures to us as we left. Still pretty harmless, the V fingers, middle finger, sometimes the wanker sign if she got arsey about something.
But now we have noticed she is filming us. She will sit in her usual watching position with her phone out, but the angle she is sitting at means you can see she isn't scrolling on her phone (holding it one handed, other hand visible, not scrolling, it would be impossible to see etc.)
Either she isn't filming, but wants us to think she is, or she is filming.
She seems to always know when we move outside our front door - the second we open it, she's there. If someone drives up and parks outside out house, she is at her window in an instant, filming. She films the children as they arrive and leave, which is a concern in and of itself.
We've just got a video system because we're concerned about if she escalates this further and comes onto our property (you cannot see into her house with this).
Is there anything we can do? Short of taking pictures of her (which obviously then crosses into carrying out the same behaviour she is, which we don't want to do.
