Actually I DON'T see any difference, from an ethical point of view. Using the same logic you could also claim that robbing a millionaire would be a bigger crime than doing the same to a beggar.
I don't share your definition about what constitutes 'ripping off' either, but that may be a semantic problem, so let's not dwell on it.
As for your final insult; If that were my 'desire', then why would I post about it on a discussion board, drawing as much attention as possible to my 'vile crimes'?
I guess I am not as obsessed with profit as you seem to be.
That appears to be what mainly worries you in this matter.
