Yes, they can be arrested for contacting the victim. If they were released before serving their entire sentence, they might have to serve the rest of that sentence. Plus, they might have to serve more time for parole violation/s.

What happen to a convicted felon on probation if someone presses charges against them for harassment?
That person could be arrested for violation of probation and have their probation revoked which ends up with the person going to jail. You may also have a new set of probation terms given to you.
Can a probation officer keep people from relationships?
Yes, in a manner of speaking. If your probation conditions are such that you cannot have contact with a specific person, or a group of people, having any contact will be a probation violation. For instance: those with sex crime convictions will invariably have the condition prohibiting contact with minors. In these cases, if you have contact with a minor, you will be serving the rest of your sentence behind bars. Simple rule of thumb, "Do the crime, do the time." Just lay down and do what you have to do to get off paper.

Can someone on probation vist a minor?
Dependant on the state the probationer lives in, the laws will vary. In most cases, if the crime for which a person is serving probation for, was against or of a sexual nature involving a child (minor) then No. The court would make sure that The stipulation of "no contact with a minor" was included in the sentencing and order of probation. If it was any other crime, then yes. (again, as long as there was no order from the court so stipulating the condition of probation)
How do you report someone who is in violation of probation?
The probation officer will investigate and see if there was, in fact, a violation. If he or she believes a violation did occur, then the offender can be arrested, so as to have a court hearing. This hearing usually takes place between the prosecuting attorney, the offender and his attorney, the probation officer, and the judge. After hearing all of the facts and arguments, it is then that a judge decides if the offender's probation will be revoked, and he or she will serve any remaining jail time that was originally suspended.
