you can threaten legal action all day long
you are not going to scare anyone.
first of all, copyright infringement laws are civil laws, not criminal laws so you can sue someone but you're not putting anyone in jail and the police arent interested in your case.
so great, you have a good lawsuit... dude is definitely ripping you off and you can PROVE it.
now, do you know who and where dude is ?
you have to be able to serve him with notification that he's being sued.
if it's a corporation, they'll have an agent to accept summons.
so great, you know the guy, you know where he lives so you were able to get him served a summons to appear in court.
you go to court
YOU WIN !! (he probably doesnt even bother to show up)
the judge awards you a million dollars !!!!!
WOOOO HOOOO
hope you didnt pay an attorney too much or you gonna be out even more money than before you started your lawsuit.
if the corporation or the dude (whichever one applicable in your case) doesnt have any attachable assets in his name, that judgement is a great piece of toilet paper.
now you can wipe your ass.
