Mark Dunn, a litigation partner with Goodmans LLP, explained that the victim in this scenario has a strong legal claim against the fraudster, but the ability to find and collect the funds from the individual, usually using an offshore account, is “difficult to impossible.”
“The victim is then stuck looking for other places where they might be able to recover money, which turns into a contest between two people who were typically both defrauded,” Dunn said.
