Dispute re stolen money for PRO service

Hi, I am in a dispute with someone who has stolen money on a pretence of offering a PRO service. The invoice and crime committed all originate in Dubai.

I have told the assailant he needs to pay or I will raise a case against him and he moved to RAK recently where I found out where he lived and told him now I can make a court case. There are 20 other people I know he owes money to also.

He reported me to RAK police for harassment and threats even though my only threats were to do a combined court case with 25 other people against him and I told him Dubai police or CID will come for him if I report him. I went to Dubai police station who told me that the whole issue is a Dubai issue and not to worry.

What do I do? My number has changed from the one these crooks have so I don't know if RAK police called or not.

What would you like to do? Would you like to pursue your claim against this person in Dubai? Is this option still available to you? How much money did you pay for the service you did not get?

If you are in Dubai it might be worth raising a criminal case if the amount is significant.

I am happy for you to contact me on 042888345 to discuss.

I raised a criminal case in Dubai. RAK police called me on Friday morning, I called them back later in the afternoon as I missed their call and the officer said no case against me but I doubt he checked and wanted me off the phone

All of a sudden my Emirates ID doesn't work as I tried to register on MOI site to get criminal record clearance report. Is that just an Emirates ID issue and I am being paranoid or do they switch Emirates ID off when a case been launched?

Obviously the PRO guy has my Emirates ID and passport details. Will go to Emirates ID office to check again but do I wait for RAK police to call me again if they do have a complaint?
