Dear extreme you are experiencing the main back side off all sort of "bullshiting".
Once caught for something. The rumor about it/you will stick. Only thing to do are keeping a straight record, and prove the opposite. Anyhow, someone will always remember and enjoy trolling whit it.
[take the experience and transfer it to your real life, then live by it. You gain xp that will be worth the sht-storm you have to live through in here now. Just saying, think if your fraud was in rl, the ethics are in the principal the same. Then your whole life as you know it, now would turn to eternal RL sht instead of tb rumors]
Peace man, hang on and remember you got friends behind you!
