Author here. I did wrong. And I'm sorry I didn't stay on the right side of the law. I advise against doing the thing I did. I know it can be found on archive.org. I removed the post so people don't follow it for "guidance" on how to break the law. Sorry to everyone. I wish I could remove this post from hacker news. It is a dark page for me today.

You probably will be fine but you are risking yourself.

I'm not anti-vigilante, its always fun to read about people going after the scammers but the clout of isn't worth advertising it with your real identity.
