  • If I were the OP's employer I'd be asking Google to remove the review and I think I'd be contacting the person who posted it too, pointing that I'm not happy having my company brought into disrepute.

    In this case the trader has made multiple threats. He emailed the Op threatening to call his/her workplace; and posted a google review on her employer's google page.

    Did you forget/overlook the post I was replying to stated:
    Ohhh, I think there’s some misunderstanding here. I'm not claiming he's harassing me because he’s emailing me. He's harassing me because he posted a public Google review

    Anyway, the OP is talking about reporting to police - not just issuing a claim themselves. They stated in their OP they're not interested in the legal route - they just want to know who they can report them to.

    A bit too much tit for tat going on. Hence why I think the police are unlikely to get involved other than having a quiet word.
    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride
