I think I am being followed and I would like some advice about what to do.
Yesterday I left my home, and about a block from home I noticed a guy run a red light, seemingly to stay behind me. I went into the convenience store to get some smokes, and then the guy followed me into the store. I left quickly with smokes (had exact change ready) so I was out of there fast. He grabbed a box of 6 mini chip bags, it was the nearest item to him. Paid quickly then went back to his mundane van. I sat there and lit a cigarette. He pretended to drive away, but when I went back onto the street I saw him pulled over, waiting. So I drove into a building driveway where I don't live. I sat there for 4 minutes, then the van rides slowly by, with this guy craining his neck to see me. I sat there a minute more and he rode past the other way. After a few minutes I went home and couldn't see the van. The guy was wearing a cheap suit and cheap dress shoes and looked like a cop.
About a week ago there was another van with two dudes, also in cheap suits, and I remember I thought they were following me too. I don't remember the details but it was a van of a different color.
I don't do any crimes and I'm not in any lawsuits or insurance cases etc.
I am at a loss as to what I do next time i think I'm being followed. Is there some kind of tactic I should use? Start following them? Introduce myself? Ignore?
Any advice appreciated.
