I agree. This business is a BUSINESS and they need to start ACTING like one, otherwise it's not a business. From what I have experienced and gathered, this business likes to SCAM people. They can't ban you. Do NOT let their threats get to you. Go full force and shut them down. Do not make the same mistake I did by backing off.

First off, they do not have my account info. Second, it is against the terms of service you are correct, however, it is not against the law. What is against the law is fraud, which is what they have committed. Thank you for your input.

These companies are patently against the TOS of the online games they sell services for.
For 350 bucks I am assuming you purchased powerleveling and perhaps raid keying. These type of services usually require you to give your account info to a team of players so they can play your character.
It is against the TOS to share your account info with another person.
If you were buying Platinum, well that is against the TOS as well.
If you have already provided your account name or character name to these people, they are fully capable of getting your account banned by informing Sony that you have violated the TOS.
You should have issued a chargeback, but you only have 60 days to do so and you are now out of that time frame. I would call your credit card company and ask if they would still allow you to do it, explaining that you attempted to work the issue out with the merchant and were unable to do so.
