Contact a lawyer, then the Police.  I can get the details of a
(reportedly by a business parnter) copyright lawyer for you if you need
it.

Lawyer, then Police.

You need to be careful about libel.  The courts take a dim view of
unsubstantiated claims that have a significant impact on someone's
career (and rightly so).

I think this is a clear case of theft, regardless of the technology
involved.  More importantly I think this is a serious case of dodgy
ethics in the individual involved, and that should be communicated to
potential employers.  But be careful

ObDisclaimer: I am not a lawyer.
