Both are vulgar and provoking. You can even get into an unnecessary trouble if you don't correctly feel out the feeling of the person you are saying them to. 自業自得 sounds more sassy. ざまぁ見ろ is a kind of swear word provoking or making fun of someone who screwed up. It also can lead you to a serious conflict.

the latter sounds more offensive, it depends on context, though.
