Be be...I so agree with the wisdom of the previous post by Patricia. She has stated much of my own experience. Her advice to get your money back, say nothing of what you discovered, and to turn your back on this man is exactly what you should do! I also agree with change your email and phone number.

You may think there is some need to confront this man, but you will retain so much more self-respect if you simply walk away. If he is persistent in contacting you for further "favors," you could simply say, "You are a dishonest person," or something of that nature, but I've been in the position you are describing. Yes, it's awful, and I made the mistake of confronting these bozos, who have no moral fiber or conscience, and who are even skilled in manipulating you to feel YOU are somehow inadequate or at fault. Don't let yourself be drawn into this game of his. Instead, knock the props out from under him by simply and permanently removing yourself, quietly, gracefully, with your self-esteem no longer being harmed.
Love
Patty
