You are absolutely right Alex. Nobody here can stop you from doing whatever you want to do, however unsafe and unwise your actions may be. But as Bryon has stated very clearly, this site is not for discussion of baiting, and any further posts discussing baiting will be removed.

As for dropping your scammer, VX has given you that advice for a reason.

Scammers who don't get their way are often like angry children who have been thwarted in their plans to cause trouble! Instead of recognizing that they are the cause of the situation, or that they were doing something they shouldn't do, they assign blame to someone else (the target or victim). In their anger, some scammers can and do retaliate.

You may not be too concerned about scammer showing up on your doorstep, but he can still cause you some headaches. In their attempts to retaliate, scammers have been known to:
-use a victim's name and even spoof their email address when spamming their scam emails, causing the victim/target to lose their email account (in one known case a scammer sent out a "hitman" format, and the person whose address he spoofed ended up being visited by the police!)
- pull new scams in the victim's name
- report the victim as a scammer to the dating site/social networking site/employment site and to EVERY site the scammer knows the victim uses.
- contact the vic's email provider, claiming the victim is a scammer and causing the victim's email to be shut down.
-use the victim's pictures and/or other information in a future scam.
-go all over the internet posting negative things about the victim, or again, reporting the victim as a scammer. Scammers regularly try to report their victims here--we identify and remove those posts, but not all sites will do that, so you can find yourself battling negative information about yourself on the internet.
-use the victim's address as a return address for fake checks (another headache that has resulted in visits from the authorities)

One scammer we dealt with even sent a nasty, incredibly vulgar email to his romance victim's employer, full of profanity and accusing her of a whole host of things. The message was so completely over the top (frankly it made the scammer look like a lunatic) that the employer didn't take the accusations seriously, but it still left the victim in a horribly awkward situation, and undoubtedly made the employer question her judgement for having anything to do with this scammer.

If he has your real information, he could cause quite a headache for you personally and professionally. The more you play with him, the more likely he is willing to spend his time retaliating. The last thing you need is to have to spend your time attempting to explain to potential employers why there are a lot of accusations connected to your name--or for you to miss a potential real job possibility because your email address has been closed. It's just not worth it.
