Atlanta, GA asked in Landlord - Tenant for Georgia

Q: Landlord is threatening to harass significant other and myself employers? Can he do that?

We have lived here a total of 10 days. We had a verbal agreement upon security deposit payment and when and what they would expect. I came home today to find no power or electricity. Called my local PD, they rang the landlord and told him he could not cut those services. He is now threatening to call our employers to harass about us calling the PD on him. Can he do that?
