Title: Hi all,<p>I am from a third world country and my fomer co-founder is a u.s citizen.<p>We have been working since last 3 years on a ad network start-up which closed earlier this year.<p>I started a part-time project and i need some money to sustain myself so i decided to ask for 500 USD for 
6 months and also 2 - 4 hrs commitment  everyday from my former co-founder the project kicked off really well and 
we generated about 6K income in 1 week after the expenses our total profit was about 4K.<p>My co-founder paid for 2 months thats 500x2  after that the venture was profitable so he never paid and he didnt commit any 
time in  6 months he only spend 10-15 days avg 1-2 hrs on advicing and i myself spend 18 hrs a day in coding and business 
development.<p>After repeatly warning him i dedicided yesterday asked to  not to do any futher business with him and pay him for the 
expenses  and he got  mad hearing this he threatened to sue in  U.S court and file a grandtheft against me he says i will never be 
able to step in US or do business with a US company if i dont give him 2000 USD right now plus 50% of the company.<p>I feel cheated to work with someone who cannot commit time and effort  as much i do in the venture.<p>All agreements we had were via chat and voice and not in legal sheet.<p>The company is a not us company but must of our customers are from u.s.<p>Please advice<p>Thank you !
