The woman, who we are not naming, is understood to have left the country and is on the National Police Wanted List.
But The Sun can reveal she has this week been messaging stars with outlandish claims about the ex-England skipper, 39, and his wife Camilla Kerslake as she is 'intent to ruin him'.
One celebrity approached is broadcaster Narinder Kaur, who is a panellist on Channel 5's Jeremy Vine.
She flagged the worrying messages to police and Robshaw's team.
A source close to Chris said: 'Police were made aware of her claims, they spoke to the long list of people she had 'accused' and decided not to take further action.
'But she is intent on ruining Chris and a host of other people and is attempting to convince others that she is a victim, when actually she is on the National Wanted List.
'She has started calling companies Chris and Camilla were working with to tell them these lies and now is messaging celebrities with the farcical claims in the hope one of them will post about it.'
Friends now hope that any celebrities approached will not pay the woman any attention and flag the notes to police.
They say Chris' ordeal started last July when he attended the same event as the woman.
Chris alerted police when her threats became physical and towards his two children, and learnt that the woman was already known for similar behaviour.

The friend added: 'Poor Camilla has been pulled into this for no reason at all.
'She hasn't even met the woman.
'This all started after she fell out with a previous employer over formal warnings for unprofessional conduct.
'She is obsessed with trying to ruin lives.
'Time and again, she's made vile false claims about innocent people.
'She's a serial offender - that's why she's now a wanted person.
'Police are being inundated with evidence against the wanted individual."
Chris, who retired from professional rugby union in 2022, alerted the BBC about the issues when he signed up to appear on Strictly Come Dancing.
The Corporation has been supporting him but the lad is determined to make this about dancing, not drama.
The pal added: 'Chris has said to friends that he completely understands if Strictly had withdrawn their offer - he even admitted he felt like a bit of a burden on those he's working with.
'DANCING NOT DRAMA'
'Chris doesn't want special treatment just because he's on TV.
'He feels strongly that what's happening to him happens to countless others without the same spotlight.
'Whilst he could sue this individual for defamation, it's obvious there are some mental health issues here, and therefore he doesn't want to drag her through the courts as he believes she won't get the help she needs.
' Chris is determined to make this about dancing, not drama.'
The Sun understands the stalker was arrested in December and released with a caution.
But those close to Chris said her harassment has continued and she has now left the country.
The Sun approached his spokeswoman for comment.

US woman to be sentenced over failed assassination plot in Birmingham
A would-be assassin who flew to the UK only for her gun to jam during an assassination attempt while she was disguised in a niqab will be sentenced on Thursday. Aimee Betro, 45, was found guilty of conspiracy to murder, possessing a self-loading pistol and fraudulently evading the prohibition on importing ammunition after a three-week trial which ended last week. The graphic design and childhood education graduate tried to shoot Sikander Ali at point-blank range outside his home in Measham Grove, Yardley, Birmingham, shortly after 8pm on September 7 2019. Judge Simon Drew KC will sentence Betro, who is originally from West Allis in Wisconsin but lived in Armenia until earlier this year, at Birmingham Crown Court. Jurors at her trial heard she took part in a plot orchestrated by co-conspirators Mohammed Aslam, 56, and his son Mohammed Nabil Nazir, 31, who were sentenced for their part last year, following a feud with Mr Ali's father, Aslat Mahumad. Nazir was jailed for 32 years in November 2024 for offences including conspiracy to murder while Aslam was sentenced to 10 years. Prosecution counsel Tom Walkling KC said 'revenge was the motive' after Nazir and Aslam were injured during disorder at Mr Mahumad's clothing boutique in Birmingham in July 2018, which led them to conspire to have someone kill him or a member of his family. Mr Walkling told Betro's trial that she met Nazir, who lived in Derby, on a dating app in late 2018 and then communicated with him via Snapchat before flying to the UK on Christmas Day of the same year. She told the court she slept with Nazir at an Airbnb in London before returning to the US in January 2019. Records show Betro landed at Manchester Airport on a flight from Atlanta on August 22 2019, two weeks before the attempted killing of Mr Ali. Betro was caught on CCTV at and near the scene of the failed attempt to shoot Mr Ali, who fled in his car after the gun jammed. Security camera footage also captured her return to the scene hours later, when she aimed three shots through the front windows of Mr Ali's family home. Betro told the court she flew into the UK to celebrate her 40th birthday and knew nothing of any shooting or murder plot by the time she returned to the US. She also attempted to explain away evidence against her by claiming the woman caught on CCTV wielding a gun and recorded booking taxis was 'another American woman' known to Nazir who had a similar voice and footwear.

Real Madrid icon leaves locals stunned as he pops into Scots pub for a curry – before returning the very next night
A REAL MADRID icon left local punters stunned after popping into a Scots pub for a slap-up Indian feast with pals. He also watched his beloved hometown team in action. 4 4 4 Wales legend Gareth Bale headed to The Glendevon Hotel in Auchterarder, Perthshire where he enjoyed tucking into a Tikka Masala cooked by chef Mandeep Saini - who previously delighted customers at the world-famous Gleneagles hotel. The ex-Tottenham star enjoyed the experience so much, the party returned the following night for more football and curry. And he got the result he'd have hoping for too as he watched hometown club Cardiff City beat Swindon 2-1. The 35-year-old, who retired from the game two years ago after a stellar career in which he won five Champions Leagues with Madrid and 111 caps for his country, delighted locals with his 'down-to-earth' charm. He even posed for snaps and signed autographs. The bar manager told the Scottish Sun: "I suspect they were all staying at Gleneagles which is just nearby, but they came here both nights. "He and a few of his pals came along around 6pm, they chose to sit facing the big screens to catch the game - it's the best view in the house. "They had a big feast cooked by our chef Mandeep - who still cooks the delicious recipes he used at Gleneagles. "It obviously went down well - we couldn't believe when they walked back through the doors for round two on Tuesday night. "He was so lovely, polite and down to earth. Micah Richards gasps 'you said that?' as Gareth Bale makes shock revelation live on TV "There was a bit of a crowd on Tuesday night, with the talk spreading through the town, and Gareth was so happy to chat and pose for pictures for fans. "We'd gladly welcome him back - what a lovely customer." It is thought the star, who is well known for his love of golf and has cut his handicap from 'three or four' to just 0.1 since retiring from football, was staying at Gleneagles. Famous faces are often spotted at the quaint, bustling town - with luxury hotel often playing host to the likes of Rod Stewart, Jennifer Lawrence and prince William and Kate.

MasterChef viewers demand contestant is 'disqualified' after he makes a MAJOR blunder
This year's series of Masterchef had already been marred in controversy, after its stars John Torode and Gregg Wallace were axed by bosses. But viewers were venting their fury for a wholly different reason after Wednesday's episode, as they demanded a contestant be 'disqualified' for a major gaffe. The show saw the remaining six contenders - Naomi, Martin, Joy, Michael, Reuben and Victoria - face the challenge of impressing Gregg and John with their 'basic to brilliant' creations. Contestants were ask to transform everyday home cooking into something 'extraordinary', and IT project manager Reuben chose to present traditional meatballs alongside handmade pappardelle pasta in tomato sauce. Things took a turn when Gregg cut into the meatballs to taste them, only to discover they were still raw inside. Despite earning praise for his pasta and sauce, Gregg and John were quick to share thoughts on the main element of the dish being undercooked. Gregg said: 'Big issue with the meatballs,' whilst John added: 'I cannot ignore the fact that you've got meatballs that aren't cooked all the way through.' Visibly dejected by the feedback, Reuben admitted: 'I'm feeling deflated. After all, they weren't cooked all the way through, so I can forgive them for not wanting to eat them.' Viewers were also quick to make their feelings known on social media, with some claiming Reuben should be 'disqualified' for the gaffe. Posts on X included: 'Undercooked meatballs should be instant disqualification; 'Were they cooked with a blowtorch?; 'Sorry, but that's a major schoolboy error at the stage he should absolutely be disqualified. Shame.' Reuben's meant he ultimately missed out on a place in the quarter-finals, and he was sent home along with Joy and Martin. It comes days after MasterChef was ripped to shreds for its 'disgraceful' editing of Gregg in its latest episode, with viewers declaring: 'Is this for real?' Viewers were also quick to make their feelings known on social media, with some claiming Reuben should be 'disqualified' for the gaffe Gregg and co-host John Torode were sacked after almost 20 years on the show by the BBC last month after an investigation upheld allegations about their poor behaviour. Wallace had 40 complaints upheld, including one where he was accused of wandering around set naked with a sock on his penis. Torode was found to have used a racist term in 2018. Their final series of MasterChef was filmed before they were both fired. The show's bosses have insisted on keeping them in the final edit - but only if they were on screen less and their banter and jokes were cut down to a minimum. Several contestants asked to be edited out themselves to avoid being on screen with them. Daily Mail revealed that viewers have pointed out 'disgraceful' edits in the new series on BBC One and iPlayer, with many cuts appearing awkward and repetitive, including those of Mr Wallace. In one scene shown last week, stills of Gregg pulling the same face three times in around a minute made it to air - with many suggesting that the BBC and production company Banijay used the same footage of the disgraced host repeatedly through the show. Some of his fans have even claimed the edits, where Gregg gives a semi-gurning smile, were deliberately to embarrass him and 'make him look demented'. TikTok user Gingernat Design shared a particularly unusual example, writing: 'Clever editing from MasterChef. 'Whether this is to do with the allegations or not I don't know, but it's jokes how they just froze Gregg Wallace for an entire conversation.' The now-viral clip sees a contestant discuss her performance with Torode and Wallace. The same shot of Wallace appears to be used three times in succession - and he is seen with a broad grin fixed on his face. The uncanny scene has horrified fans, who rushed to social media to express their disapproval.
