Government is not your friend.
When you get scammed and then in a government induced process the scammer is found guilty you usually don’t get your money back.
Even if your money is found in the bags or rooms of the scammer. They keep it.
That is sad for the owner but totally normal in clown world. They keep your shit. They are the most powerful gangsters and everyone should route around them.
They take everything if they can. Your money, your soul and your time.
