This is well-meant, but the author seems to be based in Italy, and this is illegal in Italy [1]. I know how tempting it is to retaliate against these people, but you have to stay on the right side of the law. If you choose not to stay on the right side of the law, then at a minimum you really should avoid blogging about your crimes. [1] https://iclg.com/practice-areas/cybersecurity-laws-and-regul...

I think he took the hint and removed the post.

where should I contact Italian authority? there's this malicious person who damages other people's property without legal justification.

Well you have to fill in all your details in the form on italianauthority.it.gov.com.to . It will ask you to purchase an NFT, but don't worry, you will get it back at no charge.
