creeped on

Watched without consent

To creep on someone is to watch, follow, or monitor them in an unwelcome or unsettling way, often with romantic or sexual interest.

The phrase frequently describes obsessive social media surveillance: He's been creeping on her Instagram for months.

Creeped on is the past tense, indicating this behavior already occurred: She found out he'd creeped on all her photos.
