I'm generally a person not to seek revenge , and my travels bought me into contact with some pretty unpleasant people , I left that job pretty sharpish and self declared my income and will pay the tax on it in Jan 07,

Thing is they got peeved at me for something and started threatening my friends down south , sometimes going to my old bike meets and looking for me making threats. I have no idea if these threats have any teeth.

As said I generally live and learn and forget such things or try to since its in the past , they haven't however and have started making threats to friends again.

Is revenge in order?

I know they are a tax evading company (a reason why I left sharpish) I did their book keeping and left no indications that I was ever there, and I know how their tax evasion works through and through.

Ie should I put a tip in at the Inland Revenue about them? , as said I've covered myself totally and I'm just pissed that some of my friends down south are living in fear.

Or would they find out it was me and actually send somebody to kill me?,

Just to add confusion into the mix 3 of the staff are really good guys its just the bosses that are cnuts and I don't want to see them unemployed.

Any thoughts?

If they are of the belief that you have grassed them up and are making the threats then what have you to lose by actually grassing them up? Thinking

Mmmm, you're being a bit too vague to give any decent advice..what sort of business are we talking about, what nationality are these people, and what involvement do your friends 'down south' have and how do they know your friends?

In my experience, 'heavy' criminals, Russians, Kosovans and Columbians are definitely worth steering clear of and not worth antagonising, anyone else are usually all mouth and no trousers and some you can negotiate with - i.e. back off making the threats or I'll tell the IR about your tax evasion scheme.

What sort of people? What sort of threats?

Revenge in cases like this is definitely a dish best served cold, you need enough time to pass so that you are an unlikely connection when anyone is trying to work out what may have happened to them.

[naive mode] Are your friends in a position to maybe go to the police and get these people warned off that way? [/naive mode]

Or maybe to go to "other" friends who are more in a position to front up to them?

Re the 3 people who may end up unemployed, believe me better to be on the dole than work unknowingly for someone crooked then find yourself implicated when it all starts to unravel. Ask me about my experiences in 2002/3 when my ex-employer had me arrested sometime....... Evil or Very Mad

Outside of films that is really a very uncommon occurence. Bit of a difference between a beating (and the way people talk these days even a scuffle in a carpark seems to be "a beating") and someone knocking on the door with a loaded twelve bore and a car running. Not really any way people on a forum can judge just how "heavy" these chaps are is there.

[/not aimed at Itchy, minor rant]
This is one of my pet hates on this type of place. "Such and such done me wrong, should I get 'em back". FFS, if you really intend to do shit then why the hell are you drivelling about it in a place like this? Pretty much the only responses you'll get are from kiddies and wannabe types who come out with immortal lines like "trash the place" or "let's have a bikers party" or somesuch. If you want to do stuff, then do it. In most cases banging on about it simply makes you look like you're mouthing off to make yourself look bigger. Siggi, for example, manages to walk a fine line here. Most of what he comes out with is anecdotal and has at least a tenuous link to whatever is being discussed (mostly), not "I'm gonna do".

Meh.

Walks a fine line? I watched him draw it, late one night when noone was around!

Agree with what you say though, in general, if you were sufficiently nasty or dangerous to be able to do anything, you wouldn't be running to the net to ask permission.

What did I do now? Or then, as the case appears to be. Neutral


Haha! Guilty conscience ahoy!

In all seriousness, 'twas but a joke, in recognition of your unique presence on BCF!

yes but we are bikers , to kill a biker all you need is a car , ram them and do a couple donuts over the biker and drive off , you get away with it more often than not.
