Hi,
At least I would have wanted a second opinion.
Could you please escalate this to your line manager?

edwardmayfair, Nov 28 11:00 am (PST): Hello,
We have reviewed the account you reported and have determined it is currently not in violation of Twitter’s Rules regarding impersonation (https://support.twitter.com/
As a policy, we do not mediate content and we do not intervene in disputes between users. This means that users are allowed to post potentially inflammatory content, provided that they do not violate the Twitter Rules (https://twitter.com/rules).
We have generally found that responding to users who are intentionally attempting to aggravate you encourages that user to continue their behavior. We recommend you do not reply, retweet, comment on their behavior, or engage with them further. If you are concerned for your physical safety, please contact your local authorities for further assistance.
Here is some additional information about dealing with bullying:

Please let us know if you believe the behavior has escalated or otherwise violates our rules.
Thanks,

johncons, Nov 15 11:26 pm (PST): Hi,
the account uses ‘johncons’ which is my nick, which I’ve used for many
years, on my blog:
http://johncons-mirror.
On my web-site:
http://johncons.angelfire.com/
And on Twitter since 2008, (if I remember right).
The account also asks me to take medicine against insanity.
This is harassment, I think.
On top of pretending to be a transexual, (I think it is), versjon of me.
Erik Ribsskog
PS.
I’ve sent you tens of reports like this lately.
You should pay me for all the junk I clean up on your network, I think.
PS 2.
Here is more about the account and Tweets I’m complaining about:
