In response, Enitan, the techie, took action by deleting the website and subsequently demanded $6,000 from the client when she appealed to him.

He shared his story on his X handle.

The techie wrote …

“After building a shopify website, this US based client kept postponing my payment. She was making sales and I was seeing everything in the backend.

After 6 months of begging for $600 with no response , I deleted the website. Almost immediately she came threatening and racially broke shaming me

After a few days she apologised and tried to trick me into putting back the website for my pay.

I told her the fee was now $6000 or she gets another dev to do it.

I left a “This owner refused to pay her developer for 6 months” message on her website.

Legend has it she’s still looking for a developer.”
