LOL this is super fishy
You definitely got a settlement offer from shuffle and accepted it.
Disgusting behaviour from both OP and shuffle
You got your money and now trying to repair the damage on this forum
I just learned about this case, and I'm also surprised by the OP's explanation, but do you have any evidence of this settlement, or did you just pull it out of thin air? It's one thing to think that's a reasonable explanation for the twist in the OP's version, but I think you're taking it for granted too lightly.
