Yeesh. Yeah, I echo what everyone else has said about small claims or class action. Small claims would probably be easier, though.

It’s so sad! He’s clearly totally baffled and distressed. :(

They should counter with an actual lawsuit. Seriously. What is he going to do? "I'M SUING YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT HOW I ILLEGALLY KEPT YOUR DEPOSIT." That's absurd.
