Even though you don't have any recourse legally-speaking, you could complain to Kraken that there is a scammer using them to cash out bitcoin through their exchange. This is the scammer's Kraken deposit address:

Found him. He's vareole. Busted AF.

That address is part of this wallet and was used to send BTC to the same Kraken deposit address:
I had kind of suspected they were the same person for a while now, but he's getting better at covering his tracks. Unfortunately the blockchain is non-uncoverable. Somebody should really report him to Kraken, though. If I was one of his victims, I definitely would.
My point is that being the member with the 37th most good reports doesn't mean a goddamn thing in general and it certainly doesn't have anything to do with this scam accusation.
Perhaps not but since vareole is also on the top reporter list with 569 good reports, so he actually has 1004 good reports total. He's been a very busy beaver, and a very naughty boy.
