'Got back at a scammer': Guy gets scammed by mover, bands together with other conned folks and spams him until they get their money back

Moving is already stressful enough; getting scammed during a move is about as low as a scammer can go. The closest I have ever been to getting scammed during a move would be during the apartment hunting process in New York City last summer. 

After applying and securing an apartment that was already near the top of our budget maximum, the listing agent decided that this place was in such high demand that he could then add a ton of extra fees on the place, none of which were communicated to use beforehand. Luckily, we had seen enough apartments and had lived in the city long enough to know that this was abnormal, but this dude was trying to capitalize on the fact that perhaps we seemed young, naive, and willing to pay whatever was necessary to get the apartment. We had a prior appointment the following day to see a different place with no extra fees, so we pulled out of the expensive apartment at the last minute, angering the listing agent. We then ended up loving the other apartment and still live there to this day. 

I bring this up to say that people know how vulnerable, desperate, and busy moving is, so they will take advantage of you when they can. This Redditor understands that all too well at this point, but his form of revenge was far beyond petty: it was epic.
