Can I pursue a legal action against a company in US that has scammed me if I am not a US citizen?
It depends somewhat on whether that company also operates in your country. If they do then you can file suit in your own country.
It is possible for someone who is not a citizen to pursue legal action against a company that operates only within the US but you would be well advised to look for an attorney/lawyer/barrister/solicitor/legal firm with experience in such legal proceedings and have them help you file within the US courts. Filing in a foreign court will probably do no good if the company doesn't have a physical presence in your own country. Filing in the International Court of Justice (French: Cour internationale de Justice; commonly referred to as the World Court or ICJ) will not do much good either since in general, US courts do not recognize that court as having any jurisdiction within the USA unless it is a matter specifically addressed in a signed treaty between the USA and your home country.

Can you pay bills with your birth certificate?
somme research says that yes you can but as of yet no one is sure
but most likely i would say no
The only means that one can use a birth certificate to pay bills is claims as proof of identity to garner access to existing bank accounts and or open a bank account as these documents are vital to obtain a legal photo I.D.
Now under some old colony laws the right of birth enables also the access to government assistance or application of such to receive money to pay for bills in those days a govt official would validate a vendor to accept vital goods for life (this is still viable only to FEMA as the approved merchant or bill collector must document offerings if properly registered with govt). If one doesn't have proper I.D. for issues such as stolen wallet with I.D. and or loss via a home fire and/or etc. I would say yes only in certain situations of the most extreme consequences such as a natural disaster where the documentation is used to receive vouchers to pay for recover only in situations such as a natural disaster through FEMA.
But if no incidence of natural disaster or if not applying through a government social services agency then NO, no retailer and or bill collector is currently authorized to accept a birth certificate as it's the one area of proof of Identity - it's best not to openly display such a document that secures your identity in cases of identity fraud or open yourself of having this document compromised by open display to others that may or may not take content of information pertained in order to commit an act of identity fraud against you.

Is it true Frank Dux was exposed as a fraud?
Frank Dux like most celebrities is continually subjected to misleading and sensationalized reporting, that often results in unsubstantiated allegations being made and repeated.
For example, the most common allegation of wrong doing stems from an editorial written by Los Angeles Times reporter who turns out is the one exposed as deceptive in a case of libel and slander of Frank Dux v. Robert Brown, Alexander McColl, Larry Baily and Soldier Of Fortune Magazine, Case No: BC198883, Superior Court Of California, Los Angeles County - like what happened to P. Diddy Colmes, the Los Angeles Times held up fraudulent evidence as credible by which to financially benefit
Shortly after the movie Bloodsport's release in May of 1988, a staff writer published an editorial in the Los Angeles Times' local San Fernando Valley Metro Section accusing Dux of making everything up. The editorial is written in a format one may easily mistake for an objective article. Johnson states that Dux's Kumite trophy didn't come from a 1975 tournament in the Bahamas, but rather it was merely ordered and picked up by Dux at a trophy shop just a few miles from his Southern California home.
This alleged trophy receipt was exposed in a court proceedings to be an obvious fabrication, thus withdrawn from evidence due to these facts:
- The alleged trophy receipt is a Xerox document where Frank Dux's signature is cut and recopied from another document onto the receipt, in addition to giving the incorrect address for him.
- Anyone could create this on their home copier.
- The trophy inscription name is incorrectly spelled D-U-K-E-S and not D-U-X (contrary to the correct spelling inscribed on Dux's trophy).
- The alleged trophy receipt is dated 1979, which is three years after the trophy was first viewed in Dux possession, in 1976.
- the photo that was taken of Dux holding the trophy that appeared in Black Belt magazine, November 1980, was snapped three years before the date on the LA Times receipt
- No resemblance exists between the LA Times photocopy of a trophy receipt and Dux's trophy. The alleged receipt the LA times relies on is for a three tiered trophy with two gold cups on and four judo figures. The Dux kumite trophy is a two foot pedestal base with a large engraved silver bowl as its crown - it is not even remotely close regarding its size specifications and materials to the description on the alleged receipt.
In the interview with Martial Arts Illustrated, Dux also stated that the article's author, was an acquaintance of his ex-wife and that the article was written at the same time that he was embroiled in a bitter divorce.
One can view and compare the alleged trophy receipt against Dux Trophy as it appeared in Black Belt magazine.
In addition, another misleading source is the book Stolen Valor, which it turns out is self published. The author states that he used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of Dux's Marine Corps records, and thereby discovered that Dux served in the Marine Corps Reserves in the U.S. from 1975 to 1981, never seeing any overseas action.
The main problem with Stolen Valor author's research is that it ignores the fact that Frank Dux never claimed to be a veteran of the Vietnam War in the first place. "I never represented myself in my book or otherwise as a Vietnam War veteran, was in the CIA, or murdered anyone," Dux said, in Asking The Masters. Thus, Dux could hardly be exposed as a fraud for making claims it turns out he never made.
The Legal Analysis and Breakdown of Stolen Valor which is the crux of Dux's court case of libel and slander Dux vs. Soldier of Fortune magazine that repeats and makes unsubstantiated allegations of their own reveals the book Stolen Valor in which the allegations appear is self-published, not subjected to unbiased independent external scrutiny, unlike Dux book The Secret Man,HarperCollins, 1996 that according to the Artesia Daily Newspaper, July 18, 2008 is vetted (facts and claims substantiated) by the law firm of Slade and Metcalf for HarperCollins, prior to its publication.
