Cheap lesson learned. We have all been burned. You may spend more time trying to recoupe anything from this. Others have advised similar, write it off, he's a bad customer. Later, if he wants changes you have a few options: 1) Do the work and keep in safe, and send a screen shot. OR 2) Ask for payment up front, and back pay. Then collect before giving anything over. Edit: Call him on the phone, leave a message and be totally honest, "I feel you are dodging my communication to avoid paying me". If he's honest, he will pay up, and even be ashamed and embarrassed. If he's dishonest, you'll get nothing, at least you will know for certain either way.
