I don't know much about laws so I wasn't sure where to post this. Admins, feel free to move it to the appropriate place if you like.
There is a person that has been doing everything in their power to ruin my mother's small online business. This person has a small online business in the same field but is spiteful and wants to take out the competition, even though there is enough room for everyone. This person never names names when she bad mouths my mother's business but the people know who she is talking about. She seems to be doing everything legally and even if she wasn't, I don't see how any one would benefit financially from taking it to court.
I'm tired of my mom having no recourse for this horrible person's behavior. My idea is to put up a fake site with ads (nothing sexual) linking to her business email and phone number so that she will be bombarded with distracting phone calls and emails. Is it legal? Would the site provider have to disclose who I am if she requested it?
This is the only thing I could think of that would cause her online business trouble, without breaking the law. If you guys know of anything better please do tell. :P
