You should also be considering turning this over to law enforcement or the appropriate DA. It is likely that the line of criminality has been crossed. If you start doing things on your own now you may adversely impact the ability of the DA / Fed to prosecute if they are so inclined.

My .02: if it is something that concerns you to the extent that you see civil action necessary you should also consider that the acts are likely criminal in nature. If you don't want to move forward and let it go, there is a very good chance that they will do it again if they have not already done this in the past.
