let's play the guessing game :)

the fact that he mentions the bounty but not the reward means he probably got a reward. If he did not get one, he would have mentioned it.

it was not a ridiculous amount because 1. he would have refused it and talked about it. 2. the money was good enough for him to comply and not cite the companies

was it a large amount ? it could be the reason why he's not telling it. Companies don't want to be spammed by script kiddies attracted by the "largest reward in town".

you need to turn this into something like the "your solution to spam will not work because:" copypasta
