Another avenue I have considered is a New Zealand consumer affairs program
named
"Fair Go". This TV show has an excellent track record of exposing scammers, and
sticking up for those who are being shafted by scammers. The format is a group
of presenters who research claims of unfair treatment, then in many cases try
to
confront the scammers - thats the part where the scammers usually turn tail and
run or get aggro towards the camera. Quite often however the scammers cave in
to
the unwanted media pressure and relent, paying back money they've
misappropriated, or as the name of the program suggests, delivering a "Fair
Go".
Those extra prickly scammers who outright refuse often find themselves in
court,
as the Fair Go team have a number of legal guys at their disposal, to advise on
cases considered worthy of elevating to the law courts.
Fair Go have taken on anyone from dodgy car dealers, to Microsoft. If the team
at Fair Go think it is a case worthy of pursuing, they'll do it with gusto,
harassing scammers, and making a laughing stock of them on TV. Not good PR for
the scammers.
Check out youtube clips with a search "fair go nz" to see how the show operates.

For the love of...
Whatever your opinion on the legality of what they are doing, this is indeed a
problem and reflects negatively on the community.
Ignoring it will not make it go away. We need to know what we can do.
Please, please, someone with a copyright interest in the software please
contact

I am not saying this for fun.
