Reddit is apparently a free-for-all for scammers and anyone with bad intentions to post libel. (lemmy.world)

A group of scammers is retaliating against me for exposing them and the Reddit admins and legal department completely ignore it.

I consulted with lawyers who told me that my only option is to spend tens of thousands of dollars trying to pursue each individual reddit account that's doing it.

Just use the block button. Eventually they'll get bored.

I actually assumed that they'd give up once they were exposed, and move on to their next grift, but apparently they are very dedicated to this one. And blocking their accounts does nothing to stop them posting libel about me.

Who cares?

I care because they're harming my reputation, business, and more.
