Do not retaliate yourself, never delete text messages or emails that might be used as evidence

Non so come renderlo....sarebbe come dire non ritorcerti contro te stesso?

non mettere in atto atteggiamenti che vi incolpino


Explanation:
The sentence should read "don't incriminate yourself". "Retaliate yourself" does not make any sense in English.

neutral  Daniela Zambrini: yourself is used as "you"(sing) for emphasis: I read it as = don't [you yourself]] retaliate. I believe it is used as an emphatic pronoun and not as a reflexive one.

non [mettersi nella posizione di] ribattere / non controbattere


Explanation:
Dal momento che si parla di scritto. Sarei per soluzioni brevi.

o semplicemente 'nessuna rappresaglia' ma in questo modo non si mantiene il riflessivo che in inglese tende a sottolineare in particolar modo.

Insomma 'non ripagare con la stessa moneta'.

agree  AdamiAkaPataflo: ahh, sì, "rappresaglie" è quello che cercavo ma non mi veniva, "niente rappresaglie/evitate le rappresaglie". invece "ripagare della stessa moneta" no, è un'altra cosa :-)
