She was not physically injured during the incident.
Detective Sergeant Peter Jarvis of Clydebank CID said: “This was very scary and distressing incident for the woman involved and she has been left quite shaken.
“We are eager to trace the man responsible as soon as possible and I would appeal to anyone who may recognise the description of the suspect, or who may have seen the three men in the area around this time, to get in touch.
“It is thought the men may have got into a parked car on the Glen Luss Road, near to the Faerie Trail.”
