I'm tired of this crap. I dislike idea of bootlegging as much as anyone but you don't have to snitch the guy out. Everyone has pirated one thing or another in their lives.

If there's one thing I dislike more than bootleggers, it gotta be rats that would go to extremes to snitch someone out.

Piracy is piracy, everyone that has a computer does it. You're essentially screwing one guy over to protect a major corporation. Unless you are actually invested or work for the company, I'd say just leave it alone. It's just my opinion, but I sure as heck wouldn't want to be reported for all the stuff I've downloaded "illegally" on my PC throughout my life.

As far as this guy is concered, someone will eventually catch him if he continues to advertise anything "modding lessons" or illegal distribution.

I have a bit of a problem with the bolded statements.  I see this on a fairly regular basis among people who pirate games, software, movies, etc.  Pirating is stealing, whether you like to think so or not.  In order to make this type of behavior okay, people who steal rationalize their actions with the "everyone else is doing it, why shouldnt I"  mindset.  The fact is ... there are are a lot of people out there that live honest lives.  Not everyone steals, so quit blaming others for the decisions you have made.
