What to do when a competitor threatens you?

[Spicy Nug]

I've had this happen to me before but not really like this.

I had a competitor email me and start saying some really crazy things.

He said what I sell isn't very good compared to his goods and that if I don't take my shop down he will find me and take down himself? Uhhh okay it's an online shop?

I'm not worried but I feel like there should be a place I can report these kinds of people to. Is there anything I can do because he's probably doing this to other people as we speak.

Well if he's in the same county you can probably report him to authority.

Honestly tho. If he's telling you he's going to to do something. He isn't.

You would have either had a legal letter or him turn up.

Just ignore them.

Take it as a complement. He's worried about you.

Say "come at me bro" then let it begin and prepare for good let's get ready to rumble.

I don't know people online can be kind of crazy but like I said I'm not worried.

I'll try to see if he lives in the same country as me.

Yes some people get aggressive or almost like a demented person for me when it happens just stand up or prepare for business mini war which happens occassionally.

You get the usual oo you stole my idea or my niche but being in this area for 14 years here the prove them"that's fake" me"okay cool.

Ignore the plebs.

You'll get them anywhere.

I would go with ignoring too, but don't delete the threats. They might come in handy later, if they ever go beyond that.
