I didn't 'get into bother' at all, but a great deal of people's time was taken up investigating a complaint which turned out to be baseless. I see no point in repeating that process.

I had already told you what I do.
 
Well you know what I mean. Hassle.

You told me the title. It wasnt very specific about your particular expertise.

Well I am sorry that happened to you - I am sure you didnt deserve such a malicious act.

Perhaps because they rubbed out?

Get away! Surely not!
