Also, no one said they were really blackmailing, or even had a good 
case -- they were just concerned that's how it would look. And it 
seems Ludo wasn't concerned they had a good enough case, or he would 
have paid them, or made some sort of restitution. It's all through 
Gred and Forge's eyes, and I think they were just worried.
