Hi katphil, it's great you want to help.
However, it is not a good idea to mess with a criminal. He has got some information about you - name, email address, maybe a phone number and your home address. When he finds out you are playing with him, he might decide to retaliate and harass you all over the internet.
Just ignore him, please, we want you to be safe.

I'm sending you a PM.
