So here what happened.
I installed a CMS (joomla!) for one of
my clients. (I also customized a template for him.) The
price we agreed on was $300US. I requested 50% retainer
and the balance upon completion of all said work. All
went well. And all work was done. but when i requested
the balance the client did not want to pay. He began to
try and make deals with me to get around paying the
balance. He said thing like, " well i will send you some
clients", or " well lets add more thing to the site and
then you be done", hinting at things the were outside of
the scope of the original project. So 1 year or more has
past and this person still has not sent my payment. he
has since ignored my email & calls. In a desperate
attempt to get his attention i turned off the site (through the cms cpanel). This did get his attention but still did not sway him to send
my final payment. And I just noticed the bastard has taken down the
link back to my site. Normally i would just chalk this up
as a loss but i cant seem to let this one go. I feel
like he just flipped me off and I am enraged. I feel he needs to learn to pay his debts. its really not the money at this point its the principal.
i mean 150 is not a "whole" lot but still, ya know?
I wish I new some RU hackerscum that i could unleash on his site.
So what do you guys think? What should I do?
