I don't know the definition of harassment in US law but under the UK Protection from Harassment Act harassment is;

a course of conduct on two or more occasions causing alarm or distress and requires that:

A person must not pursue a course of conduct which amounts to harassment of another, and which he knows or ought to know amounts to harassment of the other.

The person whose course of conduct is in question ought to know that it amounts to harassment of another if a reasonable person in possession of the same information would think the course of conduct amounted to harassment of the other.

It is not really possible to give specific examples for the simple reason that a course of conduct which may be held to be harassment of one person may not necessarialy be seen to be harassment of another.

It can and does depend on the knowledge of the individual persuing the course of action and the personal characteristics of their victim.
