Eight years in prison was imposed on Asad Hussain, 36, after Chester Crown Court convicted him of stalking, assault and refusing to provide device passcodes.
Police said Hussain created a fake Tinder profile in his former partner's name, using her photos to invite men to her Cheshire home, with some told she wanted a "rape fantasy."
At least 18 men arrived at the house and police believe the true number was higher; one broke a glass panel and another entered while her teenage daughter was upstairs alone.
The stalking followed a brief 2024 relationship that turned controlling, including a two-hour doorbell incident and an assault when Hussain tried to seize her phone.
Doorbell footage, a white Audi R8 and telecoms data linking three phones helped detectives identify Hussain despite efforts to hide behind aliases and destroyed devices.
