Yeah, I'm not entirely sure the ends justify the means here.

Considering it's international in nature, did they have any other option or recourse?

Not really. We definitely discussed with our attorney but, due to the small amount of money in the fraud ($25K) it wasn't worth the hassle of litigation.

Someone else mentioned we should go after them in Russia but, even if we won, I doubt it would be worth the hassle or distraction.
