So in 5-6 years they'll get to your case and by then the people will have moved, info will have changed and they case will end up in a garbage can with most others.
The only real way you will get your money back is if you file a lawsuit in civil court and pay a really good lawyer, then after tens of thousands of dollars you might get a ruling in your favor. That ruling will likely have zero outcome as it will go into the bottom of a pile and your odds of ever collecting the money is very low.
This is how the real world works. So yea, if you get scammed using an EMT you're screwed. At least with paypal you can file a chargeback. If you have to go to the cops, you've already lost.

LOL its not CSI but the police sure aren't as useless as you make them out to be. If they were, petty crime would be a lot more lucrative then most careers.
Everyone, #### Oil & Gas, scamming people for e-tansfers is where its at! Don't you know, it's free money!
Do you work for paypal or something?
