Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.
domain squatter demanding ransom. I've been dealing with this for about 3 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have already done some research online but did not get a clear answer.
What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?
Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.
I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

Licensed attorney — a few thoughts. Here's my take on the legal issues.
The key question is whether the applicable statute of limitations has run. Depending on your jurisdiction, you typically have the relevant statute years for this type of claim.
You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.
