Do I Need to Completely Start a New Facebook Account

Options
Hi

I've had to remove someone from my facebook and I know this person will stalk me :-(

My account definitely can't be searched/found through searching with my phone number.   If I change my email address to a completely new email, does this mean the person won't be able to track me down?   We don't have any mutual friends.

Many thanks

    If you block that person, hide phone number and e-mail from the main search, you should be ok.

    If you feel threatened, you can change your last name and hide current location, which should anonymise you as much as possible.
