Block her on all social media sites. You could also report posts she's making about you. If it's all through direct messaging then blocking her will stop that.
Ignore any emails from her if that's an issue. Set them to go straight to deleted or junk.
Don't reply to any communications from her.0 -
Screen shot them all and forward to head office0

hi there thanks for that, but my employer is the head office so that's a tad difficult,lol.. it is the owner who is causing me all these issues0

Keep copies of everything. You're not going to want a reference from her so potential employers may want to know why.0

but she is making up all sorts of lies that are not true! and its just getting worse and worse and just want to move on with my life..
If she is posting lies that are defamatory about your character in public (eg. on her facebook wall) then that's called libel and you can take legal action against her. If she is just sending you private messages that isn't libel, but could still be illegal if they are threatening.
Keep copies of everything as evidence.
Send her a letter (a real one) saying you will be taking legal action if she doesn't stop.
Unfortunately for you, there is no legal aid for libel. You may find a solicitor prepared to act on "no win no fee" but doubtful.
Can you give an example of what she is writing about you?0 -
I think this is a troll post.0
