Answer:   I would advise her to report this to the police.  This offense could be considered stalking if the offender recklessly places another person in fear.  If the incident does not quite fit the stalking criteria, the police could contact the offender and at least put him on notice that his actions are suspicious.  I would advise the victim to document any incidents and do everything possible to discourage the voyeur; for example close the drapes at night.
