Trust me, I thought about doing this. I even thought of this as a strategy to get paid before I ended up suing them. But considering this wasn't a huge amount of money, I figured the potential damage to my reputation by making the situation a public affair could end up costing me a lot more in the future.
Hmmm... What exactly would the damage to your reputation be? Hey, let's not hire this guy, he might sue if we screw him!
or... what if the HR department of some big company doesn't hire people who have sued their employers?
I'm just making things up but I have a feeling there is some potential situation where it would cost me.
Also what do I gain from it? Vengeance is one, not really a good reason. Helping out the probably not so huge number of other people who might get conned by them in the future is the other.
That reason is pretty decent, but weighed against the personal cost to me, not so much. Also you need to factor in if these future employees would even find my warning. I did a little SEO testing with this already and it wouldn't be that easy to create something easily discoverable.
For people like text: Essentially not doing something because someone, somewhere, who might at some point give you money might be offended is a bad idea.
Not only did you explain your side of the story very reasonably, you did... win the suit. It's not some he said/she said deal, a court of law ruled you had been wronged.
If you want a gain: companies that don't pay their employees will self-select themselves out of trying to get free work from you.
