    Once you call people stupid because they fell for a scam, nobody will come forward and the fraudsters will continue thriving under the secrecy of shame and embarrassment from victims.

      Most of these scammers spend the money as soon as it comes in, buying houses, cars, holidays, flights, eating out, etc. All these assets bought with stolen money are confiscated, and the scammer's bank accounts are frozen until the court case is over. Whatever is left will be divided between victims, but it takes years, and if you are lucky, you might get something like 10% of what was stolen from you. It is sad
