After he give me more information about the case, i clearly told him to not pay them a single cent, because it was obvious scam.
Also i posted my pm, posted my offer to him to help in exchange for money that should be paid AFTER if i manage to help him and not upfront.
All I'm reading is you suggesting that the guy bargain with the casino to lower the 5
BTC amount of
extortion. It's not a bribe. One of your last quotes is "you have no other option than deal with them if you want to have your stuff back". That is indeed suggesting he pay the extortionists, perhaps not the full amount but at least a partial payment.
And you want 0.1
BTC for helping him get his account back? How did you plan on doing that and how was he supposed to know you were responsible for him getting it back?
You're clearly trying to make a profit for yourself off of someone else's dilemma.
