This is in NY.
The customer is a lawyer, in a 2 man law firm.
Hes been dodging me for MONTHS about paying the $1000 bill he owes for me building him a website.
So, i finally get fed up, and send him a email stating if he doesnt pay in 24 hours, the website will be changed.
The new website will be simple text, saying this law firm hasnt paid the bill on the website and now the website has been taking off line.
Then he emails me back within 30 mins, claims that im committing a criminal act and if I change the website, hes going to have me arrested for EXTORTION.
Heres what he says ( the email is much longer, but this is one of the paragraphs )
" The manner and forum your threat constitutes numerous felonies, including Wire Fraud at the Federal level and Attempted Grand Larceny in New York State. Should you choose to tamper with our web site in any manner we will be left with no choice but to turn this matter over to the District Attorney’s Office. "
