... but do you not see this action of yours could be far more destructive to him than what he did to you?
You made no mention of his unwilliness to co-operate so you can see why I wrote how I did.
Look, I'll be honest... you ARE acting like a fucking child. I understand he has hurt you but's it just money. Be a man .. the bigger man... and take a different approach.
Put an advert on a classified site for his location, pay a guy to take pics of his house. Tell him your renting it and need an outside pic for when the lease ends. Send the scammer the photo and say you got a henchman set up in a hotel 5 mins away. "Give me my money" or one phone call and he's in pain forever.
Grow a pair.
Yeah, your post convinced me I shouldn't be reading such bile and vitriol on a regular basis.
The sad thing is I have probably spoken to a lot of you guys here on WF in real life and we have both appeared decent enough guys to each other... but the way you've let the bottom feeders fuck up the place... not a lot of decent guys want to be here anymore.
