He's scum. He has to live with that. Since it was WES's money, we got $300-400 bucks worth out of it

At this point, there's nothing much more to do.
Unless....unless.....:
First, we back off on the phones to give him a sense of finality.
But, we get ten to fifteen of us... each taking a day in the future...Like starting next week.
We make a call...I mean, ten to forty calls..... to the crook.
Here's the dialogue or text:
"Remember Wes?"
"He's the one you should think about every
night as you try go to sleep."
"He got ripped off by you."
"But only for money."
"He's not the loser."
"You are".
"Wes has friends.
"I'd bet my life *you* don't have ONE real friend."
"Just wait until you meet even one of us face-to-face."
"Pray that you don't meet two of us at the same time."
"Hope it was worth it to you, you slimy, stupid, cheating liar."
So, anyway, we get ten or fifteen guys to take a day every month for the next twelve months.
And we keep blowing up his phone until he changes the number.
When he changes the number, we find it and then post the new number....
Then, Here We Go....One more time!!!!!
If we don't do something like that, we at least have to post his name(s), address, and phone number again so we can take some individual action.....Just friendly-like.
Call and visit. Make an appointment for him to do some work. I know he must need money. Maybe he'd like to come to California to do a little construction work.
I understand that the flights from Seattle to San Francisco are somewhere around $376 this time of year.
