Sin Chew Daily reported that a 32-year-old renovation worker and his wife were harassed by unknown persons with over 1,000 calls and 50 SMSes a day.

The daily quoted the worker as saying that the incidents happened since Oct 5.

In the past two weeks, the unknown callers (a male and a female), who spoke Cantonese, disturbed them day and night.

The content included sexual harassment and even urging the couple to divorce.

Although the couple has lodged a police report over the harassment and even told off the callers, they claimed the callers scoffed at them, saying they were not afraid as the police would not be able to find them.
