First, forget her in-game.
Every time she shows up, add her new toon to ignore list, and go back to raid with your old guild.
She can't do anything to you in-game.
Just add her to ignore every time, and she will give up using this source to hit you.
Format your computer.
Resintall everything from the zero.
Only save files that are 100% necessary, and first add a good antivirus and antispyware.
(Add files to new pendrive, i mean NEW 100% clean one, format pc, install windows, install antivirus and anti-spyware, THEN use the pendrive to get your must have files back.)
Contact blizzard about the issue.
You should let then know.
Open a RL process against her. This is a MUST.
Try to get a mandate of distance from you. Those are easy to get, even low amount or consistency of proofs.
If she breaks the mandate to haress you again, she is in bigger trouble, her lawyer will let her know that.
And, this is a serious question, why it bothers you that she PM you things?
I'm not reducing your problem or anything, i'm just curious about what makes it so stressful for you, since she can't really damage you in-game.
(BTW, its a keylogger, 99% sure)
There are some sites that will provide both transfer and name change information. Barring that and depending on how long you were together she may just have your credit card info and enough other info to gain access to your account for the spying. Either way it is kind of childish. Blizzard will be no help to you considering their failure to act on real life threat issues, but that is another story. Your best bet would be to collect screen shots, record phone messages and go to your local police. Funny as it may sound they DO have an internet division. My father retired from the police branch local to him and was head of theirs.
There is no Bad RNG just Bad LTP
She likely asked someone else you told about your new server/guild.
stalking is stalking. same as any form of harassment is harassment. shit house lawyers that play on the strict letter of the law concerning these type of things are the ones that bring the community down by being enablers for the type of people who enjoy the mental abuse of others regardless of how simple it may seem to you the observer who is not being harassed or harassing individual.
There is no Bad RNG just Bad LTP
She likely asked someone else you told about your new server/guild. From then on it is trivial to check on wowprogress who joined the guild at a certain time.
There is not likely to be any keyloggers, and the police is not going to do anything because you are contacted in an online game. Take it up with Blizzard support. Have them ban her account so she can't track you.
A crazy person with access to your system could have installed something, yes. I would consider it compromised.

Start with this. Download it, install it, update it, run it. If you are computer-savvy enough to remove the hard drive and scan it from a trusted computer, do that. Otherwise do not leave the computer unattended while it's running, just in case she can control things remotely.
Try either:
1] Running a scan on your pc for keyloggers
2] Inform Blizz of her behaviour, and see if they can do something about it
Or 3] option 1 and 2 - that's all I can suggest, good luck in trying to get her off your back

Assuming they had a real life relationship outside of WoW I'm pretty sure it's not just 'stalking in WoW'.
Having someone track your actions through any means is frightening not because of the action itself, but because it makes you think 'I wonder what this nutjob might do next'.
Hey, I went through a similar situation a few years ago. I was in a Raiding guild that imploded. Several of us left and formed our own guild. I was GM but was never happy going from 25 Heroic to 10 Norm Raiding so I promoted an Officer and let them know I would be leaving. Two of the guys (I am female) were really young, and they got pissed off at me for leaving. I did not tell anyone where I was going, xferred, did a name and race change. They found me and harassed me on the Official Forums, made toons on my new server, and proceeded to harrass my new guild. I did report this to Blizzard, as it is against the terms. I know they got banned from forums and when they logged in from other accts to harass me those were also banned. I don't know if their accounts got banned or what but I do know that shortly thereafter they harassment ended.
I have been stalked irl by a Mental Health Patient I worked with, and by these 2 guys in WoW, and by another guy in wow. Please take this matter seriously, as it can escalate quite quickly. You need to document absolutely EVERYTHING this girl does, photos, vids, screenshots, audio if she calls and harasses you, etc...You need to get a restraining order against her. This is all preparing for anything serious happening in the future. If she breaks the order, don't hesitate to call the cops. Not a lot a piece of paper can do but if she persists there are harsh penalties in place (US) with repeated offenses. If you do ever have to go to court against her you will have all your documentation to present to support your case against her.
Lastly call Blizz immediately. they can track her by ip which will also serve to document the stalking. They will (hopefully) protect your identity and do some perma banning. If she doesn't play wow anymore then she can't do much ingame to you, but they can block her ip from the forums.
Good Luck
I am glad I am not getting stalked by people.
For the Horde!
She's not contacting me in the actual game shes using it to track me and contacting me over the phone/email etc. We have a child together so I can't just ignore her totally. I just want to game in peace. Just to show you all what I am dealing with here is part of an email she recently sent. We broke lived together for 8 years and I left her due to being physically abused and have police reports I could show Blizzard) ... sorry to get personal but whatever this is what Im dealing with.
"I don’t care if you spend time with [our Son] or how much money you give, you need to spend time with me, and you will. How can you expect me to be a good mother if I don’t have your emotional support? So stop playing games, and I mean that literally, and spend time with me. By that I mean I know you were raiding on Tuesday night, you killed up to Thok. How many hours did that take, loser? Transfer all you want, I could have found Bin Laden if charged with the task. You have a duty to your job, your son, and above all me. I fucking love you."
Okay, really out the door now. Thanks for your help and I'll wipe my hard drive and transfer YET again.
"Imagine coming across a mentally disabled person who was not only drunk, high, but had a full frontal lobotomy leaving little to no intelligence left in their body.
He would be NORMAL, compared to me."

I just want to say that I'm really sorry you're experiencing this.
I hope you follow some of the advice in this thread (particularly contacting Blizzard, possibly consider a restraining order IRL).
This type of behaviour is not normal, especially based on that last email excerpt you included.
Best of luck.

Stalking is stalking. It doesn't matter where it is. It's scary and the feeling of the loss of control, of being unable to get away from this person is far more frightening than you might think. In real life you can move away and hopefully never see them again...online there is no distance. There is no safe place to go.
Child or not, yes you can. You need to protect yourself.
