I guess I meant to say you didn't care stretch.
It's no big deal, I know you weren't purposely misrepresenting my statement.
I just know some cynical bastard will hear that I said it's "fine" and think I was privately encouraging you to do this. Even though, you and I know, this is far from true.
I wouldn't have handled the situation like this if I were you, but that's just me. It feels too much like snitching to me. He got you, if you want to get him back, get on a hacker forum, pay someone to try and find him, and handle your business.
To snitch him out to the law, or put his business out there as you have done, feels a little "bitchy" to me. But when you asked me , I was in a catch22, if advise you against putting his info out on the forum, then it looks like I am trying to protect him, if I say DO put his business out there, then it looks like I am trying to crush him through underhanded means.
This online world is so fucking cynical, there is no end to the questions/accusations against someone's character, it's hard to keep your reputation clean, even if you're not doing anything wrong. Nature of the beast I guess.
The first time I ordered online I got scammed. I spammed every board those cock-suckers advertised on for like a month. I must have made 20new accounts everywhere and switched my vpn daily. I was on a mission, but eventually I let it go. In hindsight I wish I would have let it go sooner, since I doubt that I actually cost them any business, I really only cost myself a bunch of time/energy/stress trying to inflict damage to them was hurting me more than it was them.
