Agreed. Pretty sure you are supposed to ask for permission before pentesting someone. Hopefully they, being a security company, know that.

A lawyers wet dream is when a security company.... Finds an issue, does not abuse it, and reports it to the affected party for it to be patched?

I feel like people like you are more of a lawyers wet dream, in that they'll happily litigate a frivolous case for you while billing you hourly.
